1. While driving along in 4th gear, slow down to below 30 mph

2. Remove foot pressure from accelerator pedal

3. Press clutch pedal fully to floor

4. Move shifter from 4th to 3rd

5. Let up clutch pedal and remove foot from it

6. Continue driving by applying pressure to accelerator pedal

Ah, yes if it won't come out of 4th except at a complete stop, something is broken. Best to swap a good used 4-speed in its place.

Sounds like too much endfloat on 4th gear. I had a 5 speed jam in 4th gear. Stripped the box, and added a small shim to pack out the endfloat. Problem solved.
If you remove the front half of the gearbox casing, you should be able to measure the endfloat with feeler gauges.
