Hello all,
my 1984(B reg) 200T has for some time not had first gear on the Auto box. The gear box has a slight oil leak but I do top up the oil occasionally. However I do find it very difficult to measure the level on the dipstick when running in P - as the oil doesn't leave an obvious line on the stick - unless its me smearing it when I pull the stick out! Could it be low oil level?
Anybody got any ideas what the problem could be please as pulling away at roundabouts is a hazardous process at the moment!
All other gears O.K. and no unusual noises from the box.
Thanks
Paul
P.S. still not sorted my choke problem - if, as appears to be the case, the choke mech is worn/coming off too early, is this an expensive repair? i.e. do I have to replace the Carb including the choke mech? or is it repairable?
Any thoughts?
