Re: 5-gear (DW) question

5-gear (DW) question

Hi,

When my 5-gear is disconnected from the shift rod the lever is pulled out at max (between 4th and 5th gear). I have also an 3H 5-gear and this one is pulled out to the center (between 2nd and 3th gear).

Is this the normal behaviour for a DW gearbox?

Thanks!

Hi, When I accelerate, the bus holds a couple of seconds before acceleration comes up. It's just like somebody is braking a little bit. Sometimes I can hear a "bang". Yesterday I've checked the pre ignition with a timing light. When I give gas, the ignition holds or even turns back before ...

Re: Another wbx 1.9 DG cut off problem

Thanks guys but it's a weird problem. This morning I split the carb en cleaned the hole to the idle cut off valve and put them together: idle ok, cold and warm. This evening I start the bus: no idle. The weird thing is: last week I did also a split of the carb to check everything: idle ok. I drove t...
