    You can have any gear as long as it's second.

    Puttering along tonight and when I tried to go again there was no first. I could get the lever into the right place, but nothing happened.

    Couldn't find third, drove home in second.

    After I pulled up at home I could find third, still couldn't get anything in first.

    LT85.

    What's wrong?

    Cheers
    Simon

    sounds like the gear shift has jumped the selectors.

    Been there, done that.

    And I'll probably be revisting that town when I eventually get the turbo on.

    Had a test, only first missing.

    Had another test, third gear was where reverse usually is, reckon it might be the selector.

    Ta, I'll get onto it.

    Its the selector(s) allright , one little Grubscrew has come undone , the one on the center rail . Rip the top off , neutralise the selectors and tighten up grubscrew (or if your unlucky , repalce roll pin )
