<div>I have an E15 that has been giving me quite a jolt when
start up. Eventually, I noticed that it only did it when I
switched directions. (fwd to rev and rev to fwd) Further
inspection revealed that it takes about 27 revolutions for the
motor to take up all the slack in the transmission. I also
have a E20, and it's not like this, so I know that this is not
normal. <br>

<div>I'm guessing the transmission is toast, but just curious if
anyone has seen anything like this. If I had to guess, I'd
say that all the rollers have fallen out of one or more
bearings in the transmission, and that a shaft is moving back
and forth, but still leaving the gears, more or less,
engaged. (assuming the transmission even has roller
bearings.) Thoughts? <br>
