ok, finally got around to clean up my engine comp and tranny and exhaust.
took a few pics of the mess ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) let me just remind you that the heat exchangers are SS and were spotless when we put the motor and tranny in! also, because the input shaft is above tranny oil level, it only throws out oil while you're driving, not a single drip when parked. well, as you will see in the pictures, except the oil that has already made it out of the tranny ...

Thanks for the tip, how do you test each gear? I could only find 4, with the selector shaft all the way up or all the way down.
My main hope for the tranny is based on a bill for work done to the car in late 1999. Guy spent $1,600 at local well known P car shop on all tranny seals, and new clutch, TO bearing. Figured he wouldn't have spent that much on the tranny if it was not shifting OK. dr |
