Default Re: 3rd Gear

If the two .010 thick horseshoe shaped shims are missing from behind the two ears of the flywheel housing where the throttle linkage bolts on it can throw off the alignment of the trans and clutch and cause the trans to walk out of gear.

Reproduction gears are always suspect. Depending on where they came from or who made them may be the cause. If the word "Argentina" is stamped on them they are likely not to stay in any gear.
