Steve Butters Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 please note - not starting in park is most likely a linkage issue since theres something funky going on with the B&M shifter...i suspect a stock shifter would cure the problemwent for a ride in this car on sunday and it runs great! i dont think the check engine light is anything serious because the car never skipped a beat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the codes read and see why the O/D light flashes. not sure why you would build an AODEok well the shop that rebuilt the trans broke the hurst shifter and now it has a problem going into gears (i do believe it doesnt go into reverse half the time, unless you mess with the shifter some how...he had it working but his mom drove it and it stopped working, so im sure he probably fixed it back however it was that he had it, but its still not right...hence the comment about buying a stock shifter)...the guy at the shop told him it was the shifter and that if he got the part they would fix it...so if the shifter is broken and the car didnt have problems before then, i would assume it would be a problem with the shifter since it worked perfectly fine before it got damaged.....but hell, youre quick to know it all so i guess theres no way its a shifter problem, guess its just a coincidence that the switch went out at the same time the shifter got damaged, and by messing with something on the shifter it will make the thing work properlyand its not "built"....he bought the car and the trans started to slip....he dropped it off to some guy who rebuilt it.... that guy is the one who did everything and just sent david a bill....the guy claims to have added a shift kit, but im assuming its probably a j-mod and he just wanted to charge david extra (j-mod will prolong the life of the trans a little bit aswell, so it is an upgrade worth doing)....the car shifts crisp and hard, so something is done to it....but ease up on him a bitand im not saying that that switch is definitiely not the problem, but to completely dismiss the idea that the shifter being replaced could resolve the problem with no knowledge of the car or ever seeing it is not any better advice than what i posted. so the response "WRONG" isnt really warranted Edited May 11, 2011 by Steve Butters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Ok now the story is the car has problems shifting completely instead of just starting in park so which is it?like i said before - i rode it in a few weeks ago and it shifted just fine. i also mentioned that he fixed it by messing with something regarding the shifter, which is why i made my comment about a stock shifter most likely fixing all the shifting/linkage/whatever problems.....youre not very good at this whole reading comprehension thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluezx6r Posted May 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 The car has NO problems shifting. The ENTIRE problem lays with the Hurst shifter. The guy who rebuilt the transmission bent the shifter casing the Lock on the shifter to not disengage. So you have to stick your hand under the shifter to unlock it. A new shifter will clear the entire problem. I fixed it once just by bending it back. The o/d light flashes due to the same problem. The check engine was just a loose gas cap.
