Most "eight" speeds are actually nine speed transmissions, designated as eight speeds to distinguish them. For example, the 8LL, which has a gear reduction range for off-road usage, is still a nine speed at it's core. See the related link for a visual pattern of a nine speed transmission.
I want to see the shift patterns
typical H pattern ....push down and to the left for reverse
changes the shift pattern on the transmission.
Allison doesn't make an 18 speed transmission.
I have a 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT and the shift pattern is: 1 3 5 2 4 R
The 2004 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy utilizes a standard gear shift pattern typical for most motorcycles, which is a 5-speed transmission. The pattern is one-down for first gear and four-up for the remaining gears, meaning you shift down to engage first gear and then shift up sequentially through the gears. To shift, the rider uses the left foot to operate the gear shift lever. Always remember to use the clutch when shifting to ensure smooth transitions between gears.
1 down 5 up
No way to answer this without knowing what transmission you have in there.
there is no fuse that makes the transmission shift the transmission shifts on cylinoids and rpms
You're not going to learn this by reading about it. Also, you need to specify WHICH twin stick transmission.. the Mack transmissions, for example, had a unique shift pattern uncommon to other transmissions.
Four speed transmission is : one down, three up.
Thils is a typical problem in the geo transmission. There is a check valve in the shift body of the transmission. It is easily fixed and costs next to nothing. If you haven't fixed it by now contact me and I'll give you the information. Mr Geo Metro leehduncan@verizon.net
