Subject:      Syncro Shifter rattle -I'v read the archives
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


Hey,
Okay, I know I am not the only one. 87 syncro with rattling shifter, quite annoying. From what I read in the archives its a plastic wrap on the shifter T that wears down.  Anybody come up with a product that can be used?  I have not taken mine apart yet but I am guessing the stuff you can buy for headlamps to protect them may work?  Perhaps some RTV Silicone, or "goop" product. Ya gotta love "goop" that stuff is a miracle product. 


Anyway, anybody new to dealing with this to line out my job please let me know.  


On a similar note where can I get the little square plastic pieces for the pop top arms to keep them from rattling against the body when down?  any good fixes. I am thinking some rubber feet from ACE.  ??


Thanks 


Doug
