Problems gearbox 912 Targa 1968

Hello,

I just bought a 1968 912 Targa with hard window.

After driving it for 200 km's the gearbox is having problems. I can't shift anymore for 3rd to 4th gear.

I can shift from 3rd gear to 5th gear and then from 5th back to 4th.

Can anyone help?

I didn't smell anything.

The strange thing is that I can shift back from 5th to 4th gear.

Can it be something with the syncromesh?

I think it is more likely that your shift linkage either needs new bushings or is out of adjustment.

This is the place to start before you dig into the box.
