The lead for my shifter snapped... Now, Herbie doesn't start.
I did pick up a new shifter, but haven't installed it yet. Before the lead snapped, it kept shorting out making shifting difficult.
Anything else I need to look at? Also, a fair amount of oil is coming out the tailpipes while it sits. Should I be concerned?
Let me know guys, I need to get Herbie back on the road so old blue, my vw rabbit truck that is overheating, can get some much needed rest.

the shifter wire will need replacing if it hasn't been replaced before now, as the PVC falls off the wire due to age...
it needs replacing... just disassemble the gear shifter and solder a new wire onto the points in the gear shifter...
that should fix your problem
