Karl..I'll BET the 1st/2nd Relay lever inside the trans is broken...No
easy fix other than to dissassemble & repair/rebuild..I don't  trust
even the later style relay levers..I weld the pin in place...just one of
my pet peeves after I had to do a warranty for Tom Boldway in Iowa or
someplace...new part broke..go figure.

Subject: Tranny woes

Just installed a 4spd tranny I bought used.

No first or second gear.  The shift lever goes into the positions, but
nothing.  No rumble or grind, even with the clutch not depressed (I'm
depressed, though).

Any ideas from the list tranny gurus?  Doesn't feel like a linkage
adjustment thing.
