[DML] Re: transmission problems



Darryl ,

The connection between the plastic clutch line and roll pin relates to
drivers forcing the gearshift in and out of gear when the clutch will not
release due to a swollen plastic clutch line. As you know this will
eventually bend or break the roll pin.

We're here to help you.
