Gear

I have a1976 337G. This is not the same scenario but I had a problem where the gear would do nothing after putting the gear handle up after takeoff. I pulled the breaker and pumped the gear doors open (they may ahve been open all along) and then pushed the breaker back in and the gear retracted normally. This happened intermittently so I had the shop put it on jacks and run the gear several times. They checked the fluid which was OK but added a little bit. It hasn't done it since.

I doubt this is much help to you.

Next time try some strong pull-up G maneuvers and sometimes this will shake the gear loose. Maybe pumping it at the same time.
