Well is it an easy fix? can some use this (http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/3683/gearbox0040iz.jpg) to show me what to do?

or do i being use have to pull it out? hhaa

part no 10 is the 5th gear acutuator. with the engine running in neutral one side should have vac. if you slip it into 5th the other side should then get vac, check that and see it it happens, also pull the little rubber boot back between it and the gearbox and see if you can see any movement in the shaft that goes into the gearbox, i'd nearly bet that the acutuator has died or the pin that connects it to the box has broken/droped out

Epic i must say.

yer theres vac in neutral and in gear... and i can see the shaft thing moving when some1 moves the gear stick when im under the crap heap.

how will i no if its stuck on or what ever....

could just bypass the solenoid...

i had an idea typed up but it wont work lol

imm find out wich hose supplies the solenoid with vacc and then instead of sending it to the sol send it to the actuator u will be stuck in high gears if it works but hey better than nothing

Epic i must say.

with the car running in netural, swap the vaccumme lines arround on the 5th gear solinoid

and that would be???? pic? sorry guys

what excakly am i looking for man?



got another gearbox linned up if mines dead to

part no 10.. i dont have a pic sorry.. tis a round bit on the front of the box at the top, has 2 vac hoses connected to it, there will be something with it not working.. whether its a mechanical problem or a vac problem i couldnt tell without being there... best bet is to connect one of the vac lines straight to the inlet manifold to supply vac properly and it might go...

which plug on the inlet manifold can be unpluged? can i use the 1 where u hooked the boost gauge up to?

thats fine as a temp source to see if it fixes the problem
