Hi All,
Found out my clutch is about shot, but have a question about a problem with the Trans.
This is on a stock 47 Ford with a flathead v/8 3 on the tree. When the engine is not running it will shift into all the gears no problem. When you start the engine you can't shift into 2nd. 1st and3rd will engage. Maybe the Syncro's causing this? All the linkage is in good shape.

Thank you in advance for any advice.
