I had no idea that finding neutral was so simple-look for the brass button in the neutral switch hole. Little things like that are SO useful to amateurs like me!
Being an amateur myself, that is why I posted little bits of info like that with pics, on my engine build thread, I thought I was the only person who didn't know about the brass button!!!. I must admit that even by rotating the output shaft, it still took me a while and plenty of wiggling to get everything in the correct place to be able to go from 1st to 6th and back down again. As Oddjob says, it depends where the dogs are sitting when you first start trying to locate the gears. Once you have everything in the correct place, you should be able to locate all gears no problem. I marked all the gear positions on the drum stopper plate (page 20 of my thread)so I knew where they were, it made things a lot easier and helped me visualise where things were internally!!! Keep up the good work.
