Mel Prince Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 I have a 2005 F150 that will not start when the gear is in park but if I move the shift gear around it will eventually start. However it will start right up if I first move the gear to neutral. Can I just drive it like that without changing the shift shaft bushings or will I end up making things worse?

375hp banshees Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 Not a ford guy but... it depends on how thick & hard the bushing is. If its thin, it will start to wear into housing; eventually. If its hard it will continue to wear on the shaft, until just a new bushing wont make it tight. I would think the seal would start leaking before either of those tho...my .02 Oh, and wrong thread https://www.bansheehq.com/forums/forum/48-cars-and-trucks/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
