915 boxes are renown for being a bit difficult to get into 2nd gear, may need new bushes or the linkag adjusting, or at worst new 2nd gear dog gears and/or synchros

If you don't have the full service info, and the car has not had its g/box oil changed in the recent past, you may find that improves things.
