I have an 85 5-speed Tri-Z 250 with a few issues so I'm posting one issue at a time. The transmission is not right. On a stand I can find neutral and spin the tires by hand. One click down and I can"t sounds normal right? When the trike is running I can find neutral again then I get nothing one click down. :wondering:wondering. I can start out in second gear and run through the rest of the gears. The odd thing is that if i downshift into first while im going and let out the clutch it engages enough to engine brake, but if i give it any throttle the motor runs as if there is no resistance. I can leave the clutch out in first gear and it will not stall. Any ideas?:eek:
I ordered a case splitter today and would like to know if this is anything that has been heard of or dealt with in the past. I have rebuilt engines in the past just never a transmission or a ATV motor. It would be a good head start to have a few suggestions as to what to look for as i dig into this engine. In the least hunting season is starting soon and I will be grounded for a while. My buddy and I will be :beer and hammer when my tools arrive.
