Any help would be appreciated. Van has 140K on it. >> Bill, it has nothing to do with shift guides.Either your clutch slave/master cyl is leaking, or your trans. syncro hub 3-4 is cracked. It will jam in gear or be impossible to shift and then under the right circumstance, cur eitself for a short while.(could also be cheap brazilian syncros....watch out.)
