Hello guys,

i have a problem with my tremec tko. Since i use a new very heavy shifter lever the 3. gear pop out in neutral while i let the car roll in the 3. gear.
No accelerating no decelerating. If then come a road hole the tranny pop in neutral.
I don´t know how i can this explain
If i use a "normal" shifter lever i have no problems. I thought about a steeda tri-ax shifter. Do it solve my problem?
Any suggestion?

Here is my hurst shifter with pistol grip:



thank´s

Markus,

Awesome car. I hope to do the same to my 67 coupe one day.



Where in Germany are you? I travel to Sindelfingen and Stuttgart for business about once per year.

Now for your problem:

1) The problem started after the new shifter?

2) Did you replace the whole shifter or only the lever?

3) What kind of shifter? Stock TKO or aftermarket?

Hello,

i live between Bitburg (Spandahlem US Air Base) and Nürburgring.
Yes, the problem started with my new shifter stick. The shifter itself is the original TKO shifter. Look here...



I think, if i use a new shifter that hold better the stick in it´s (in gear) possition is my problem solved
What do you mean. Thank you for your ideas
What engine is in your ride?
