Hi,
We have just purchased a 1981 SIII SWB 2.25 Petrol Land Rover. We have a problem that when the engine is idling, it is near impossible to select any gears. If the transfer box is put into neutral, then we can select any gear, and then put transfer box back into gear, with no problem.
Once moving, we can select any gear, and the gearbox changes up and down the gears with out any problems. There is a Fairey O/D fitted, and this seems to be working OK.
Any ideas what could be causing the problems with the initial selection of gears ?
Many Thanks
Andy
