Jumping out of first gear

[Bilko]

I'm having trouble getting first gear with the engine running.

What's that about?

I can take off in second, no jumping.

Could the cables be too tight?

sounds like cable adjustment ,what have you done to the gearbox anything?

It's a fresh build.

It goes into first ok without the engine running.

cable concertina rubber too long?

[Bilko]

It doesn't have one.

Had exactly the same problem a few weeks ago.... had to pull away in second....

Resolved it by sticking it in 4th, and adjusting the cables up good and tight from there....

Hope this helps

That's an interesting approach. I'll try it in the morning. Thanks

Tried it and still not staying in first. :/
