FLOOR SHIFTER OPERATION-HURST OLDS (Fig. 2) ---------------------------------- This car uses a three lever floor mounted shifter. The left hand lever controls Park, Reverse, Neutral, Overdrive and Drive detents. Placing this lever in the overdrive detent will allow the transmission to shift from first thru overdrive.

The center lever is used to 'Lock-In' second gear, and the right hand lever is used to 'Lock-in' first gear. To use the 'Lock-in' feature for first and second gear the left hand lever must be placed in the drive detent.

To 'Lock-in' second gear, push the button on the center lever down and pull lever back. Next, to 'Lock-in' first gear, push the button on the right hand lever down and pull lever back. When the first and second gear 'Lock-in' levers are used, it is necessary to manually upshift the transmission. This is done by moving the right hand (first gear) and center (second gear) lever forward respectively.

To manually downshift the transmission from drive to second gear, push the button on the center lever down and pull lever back. To manually downshift to first gear, downshift to second, then push the buttom on the right hand lever down and pull lever back.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
