<< hey again
 the shifter seems to get hung up sometimes when i put it into nuetral. also,
 it sometimes will shift rough from 1st to 2nd, and 2nd to 3rd. also pulling
 it out of gear can sometimes be rough, it almost feels like itjabs against
 something when coming out of lower gears. is this a sign that my tranny is
 going? or is it the syncros? can the syncros be easliy adjusted by an idiot
 like myself? the problem does not seem to be getting worse. in fact when
 weather is warmer it almost is unnoticeable. would a synthetic tranny fluid
 help solve these problems? these will be the last series of questions for
 tonight, i swear!! >>




Have you tried adjusting/lubricating the linkage?


Just a thought.
