[TR] TR3 Gear Shifter - help

[Andrew Uprichard]

Carl:  I'd be interested in the combined wisdom of the list on this, but my
thoughts were that the rounded end of the plunger should face out, but when
I tried this in my TR250, I could not select the gears, particularly
reverse.  Had to flip it.  In my TR3 it didn't seem to matter which way the
plunger went.

Just back from a 780 mile round trip to Southern Indiana - with a new TR3
project !!!  This is what makes a Michigan winter bearable.  Well, Bushmills
whiskey also helps......

I am putting the gear shift lever in and cannot recall how the little spring
and plunger are installed.   Does it matter which direction the plunger
faces (toward the engine or toward the tail)?  Are there any tips on how to
keep it in place while installing?

As usual - any/all suggestions appreciated.
