Hi All
Could someone point me in the correct direction. I have a 84 300GD which has been off the road for some 18 months. I have finally got it back on the road and find that the auto does not want to shift out of what feels like 1st gear (The repairs I did had nothing to do with the transmission). I have checked the 1st gear lock out micro switch and it look OK. I read that the Flyweight Governor could also be stuck. I don't know much about auto transmissions so is this something easy to get unstuck or is there anything else I can try before sending it off to the mechanic.
Thanks
