1965 Ford Mustang 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual
Hi have 65 mustang coupe, 200 6cyl, 3spd manual. The transmission used to get stuck in 1st gear periodically, now it does it everyday, multiple times. Taking off and trying to shift to 2nd it shifter moves to the neutral position but will not go any gear but 1st, and refuses to be wiggled out. Clutch is new. The only way out when it happens is to go under and manually grab the rods and yank them into other gear, then able to shift around again until the next time. Tonight I drove and noticed if instead of simultaneouly engaging clutch and shifting, I engaged the clutch a fraction sooner, shifted with a pause inbetween the gears instead of straight in, and it didn't get stuck again. Can you help me with what the problem may be and how I can fix it at home.
Thank you.
