Bob, If you're talking about shifting into first gear from a dead stop, try moving the gear lever into second gear first, then put it into first. If you're talking about shifting into first while mov

DO NOT attempt to downshift into first without coming to a complete stop. Some people say you can double clutch and "feel" it into first while moving, but I've always been too scared to try it. You d

Bob, Learn to double clutch. This is mandatory in non-synchro (crashbox) transmissions. Neither my TC or the GT has first gear synchro so I'm getting good at it. It entails depressing the clutch to d

Hello Bob. Yes there is a couple of ways. First you must come to a complete stop. Second is to install a fully synchro tranny from a MGB. Your transmission is non synchro and it telling you that ever

All you need do is come to complete stop before going into first. Double clutching to engage first in a 3 syncro A or B is pointless. And this business of putting in a 4 syncro B tranny -- patuuie,
