[Rovernet] 3L gearbox sloppy

[Kent Kinard]

Hi All,
Geff's car is a Mk. II with the later style shifter.  I have a Mk. III, 
but I am not at home to look at how it adjusts.  It may even be 
different from the Mk. II.  I am wondering if the assembly has come 
loose from the transmission.
Roverly,
Kent K.
