I am having an issue of shifting from forward to reverse on my gator, anybody else having or have had this problem? Just started as the weather got colder, but was doing it even after it was warmed up too.

Is it stiff to shift it? More info needed.

 

[08roady]

Yes, I had a very hard time going from forward into Neutral or even into reverse. Never had this problem, but I haven't ran it in a while also, plus it is cold up here in Michigan too, so not sure if some of them had something to do with it!!

 

[GATORDONE]

Is this doing it when engine is off? Or just with it running.

 

[08roady]

Yes, when it is running it is doing it! Even after it is warmed up for a bit it is still shifting hard.

 

[GATORDONE]

sounds like the rpm's at idle are to high,should be around 1000-1100.

Gatordone, thank you for the advice, I will give that a check!!!

Did you solve your shifting issue? If not, the engine clutches are bad about not releasing all the way the stops. This condition will load the transmission clutch causing hard shifting to any gear.

Linkage adjustment could also be a problem.
