Just bought a 2020 sxf350 and it has a wierd shiting problem. its like its 2 small stepps between each gear. is anyone familiar with this problem ?
Needs to come apart and be inspected. Might be something loose or broken in the shift selection mechanism on the right side.
What brand, weight and last time you changed the oil?
The shift “star” detent is on the clutch side at about the 5 o’clock position. Sometimes they will come loose.
thanks guys. i will be changing to steel oilpump so at same time i will check the shift mechanism

Check the points on the shift shaft that move the star They tend to get rounded and cause your problem
My 20 350 had a hard time going into gear and was doing something similar to what you are describing. The shift star had some burrs on the edges and the points were rounded a bit. The shift shaft was rounded like the Factor E said here, plus I think it was a wee bit bent. So I replaced those 2 items and it shifts like butter now. Luckily you don't have to split the cases for either of those two parts. I was replacing a crank so I did have the cases split when I replaced mine. Should be an easy fix for you.
