Those of you that are old enough or crazy enough to work on one of these, I could use some info. The '56 Ford Fairlane I'm working on has it's factory Fordmatic that has been rebuilt. It always starts off in second gear, not first. To get it to start off from a stop in first, I have to manually shift into that gear.
Is this the way it's supposed to work? I've had one competent tranny shop say Yes, but they also admit they stopped working on such old stuff years ago. They won't touch it now.
