Jumping out of gear 

Posted By : Stewart Sloan, 22-Jul-2007, 02:09pm

I have a problem with the gearbox on my Spitfire 4. It jumps out of 3rd gear (only). It seems that when I push it back in, it stays but I am not conscious that the lever has travelled any further. I took the top off this w/e and checked that the spring loaded balls were holding ok. No apparent problem there. Any thoughts?
