this thread a little while back so I ordered Wayne's "101 Projects" book for some guidance.
The book hasn't arrived yet, but I've done some searching here to find some more info. Earlier this week, it became impossible to shift into first. All other gears work just fine, but first just will not work!
Sitting in the garage with the engine off I've tried all gears and first feels like something is blocking it from engaging. I've pulled tha tunnel cover in front of the back seat and took a look, but everything there seems to be fine.
While looking, though, I found the shift coupler rubber boot stuffed back into the tunnel. It felt kinda stuck when I went to pull it out, but I was able to get it out. It was actually stuck enough to make me think (wishful thinkig, of course) that maybe it was somehow in the way of something, but this prooved to not be the case.
Anyway, it looks like everything is fine underneath the cover plate, but I still can't get into first. Does anyone have any ideas that I should be taking a look at?
