I recently had my tranny rebuilt on a 74 TR6. No way you can pull up to put
it in reverse. Also the choke does not need twisting, unklike the TR3

Did I read correctly this past week on the list that someone stated to
shift the TR6 into reverse you needed to lift up on the lever? I've
owned TR6 since 1974 and none of them were like this.
I took my 6 to be inspected this morning and tried to lift up the lever
while shifting into reverse--no way! In the back of my mind I was
thinking about the twisting the coke to stay out tip that's been posted
recently; maybe I'd missed this obvious design point for the last 23
years.
Once again, did I read this correctly? No one else has commented on
this. Or am I making all this up (been known to do a few weird things
like that!).
