So I've had this issue randomly for over 10 years now. I've had the Murray out for a couple of short runs this year and the transmission shifter fine every time. Today we left to go for the first weekend trip and right out of the driveway it would not shift on its own from first to second.

I can always shift it manually by putting it into second and then back to Drive it will goto third.

The modulator and governor have been changed along with the tubing and hoses to the modulator. I changed the tranny fluid and filter this spring. I checked the filter diameter and put 2 o-rings on it.

It may not do this now for the rest of the season or it might do it for the next thousand miles.

Driving me crazy!

Its been doing this on and off since the spring after I bought it rebuilt when I got the engine rebuilt.

Amsoil HD synthetic.
