[DML] Re: Transmission Quetion

[tobyp@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Steve - Just a quick thought here ... you may want to check the 
rubber bushings that are part of the shift tube, where the tube 
connects to the linkage going into the transmission housing.  There 
is a tube and a cable.  The tube takes care of fore and aft duties, 
while the cable does the lateral movements.  We have seen worn or 
missing bushings in the shift tube cause all manner of poor shifting 
symptoms.  Replacing the bushings has solved problems for several 
people in the PNDC.  Then again, it could be a problematic second 
gear syncro ($$$).
