I took the ole 3100 1/2T with original 216 and 3 on the tree out today. Reverse, 1st and 3rd shifted OK. Shifting in 2nd with clutch engaged produced tremendous GRINDING regardless of how many times and what speed I tried to engage this gear.
Does this mean it was getting stuck in the gearbox or at the linkages etc? It worked fine a few weeks ago, but I had to go back and fix the recent engine electrical / ignition problems.
I could shift in 1st easily, then bypass 2nd into 3rd and let her get up to speed without a problem, but shifting into 2nd with any momentum would cause a GRIND strange. I was doing to H-shaped shift pattern to ensure that I was enaging it cleanly.
Any ideas?????
