[QUOTE="ogrilp400, post: 43705, member: 88"] Guys, guys. Lets have a look at this logically. Is it slipping out of gear because the gear is not selected correctly or is it slipping out of gear [U]after[/U] it is selected correctly? To test the former, after selecting the problem gear, before letting the clutch out, reach down and feel with the gear indicator that it is indeed notched correctly into place. If its not then this can be a case of fine adjustment of the change mechanism but it can also be a case of wear and even a case of the G43 ratchet needing a small amount of metal either added or removed from the offending tooth. With the latter then the problem will be inside the box. The detent spring is either broken or sagged or the engagement dogs of the offending gears are badly worn and rounded. Phelps. [/QUOTE]
