Subject:      hands greasy, installing trans. -- please help!!...
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

hey all ---


under my van trying to get the trans back in.... don't seem to want to go in...? maybe the splines aren't aligning properly? everything was straight and looked good, engine supported with a jack, etc.how does this fine tuning get done on the air-cooled vanagon? on my '70 i could rotate the fan pulley to turn the crankshaft.


another concern i had was when i was removing the flywheel i had to lock up the teeth with a screwdriver on thr engine stud to keep it from moving, whereas when i reinstalled it it wouldn't turn at all. is this normal?i didn't do anything other than install new seals....


sure would appreciate some help here.... it's so close...


thanks, jeff
