I have found that by selectingsecond gear and then smoothly shifting straight into first I can get going...this changes my habits when coming to a stop, in that I tend to have firstselected before I usually would, in order to keep from holding up trafficand being honked at! (Los Angeles is fast being infiltrated by migrant NewYork drivers)I forget what the mechanics have said, but since my other 900 had this problem for 3 years, I've come to get used to it. Anybody else experiencing it?--Rob -----------------UUCP: sun!portal!cup.portal.com!roblingelbachINTERNET: roblingelbachno39sdcx6spamx782cup.portal.comAMPRNET: kb6cunno39sdcx6spamx782kb6cun.ampr.org [44.16.0.106]PACKET RADIO: kb6cunno39sdcx6spamx782k6iyk-------Rob Lingelbach2641 Rinconia DrLos Angeles, CA 90068 (213) 464-6266 Posts in this Thread:
