(suttle?) signs my transmission is dying

>     Yikes!  Are you sure you even have a 3rd and 4th synchro anymore?

nothing usable anyway.  According to Phil's recent post 3rd and 4th share a
synchro which would explain why they both grind.  I have to say though I'm
getting good at rev matching :-)

On the positive side my daily commute to school never sees speeds over
30mph.. so I could conceivably get there and back using only 1st and
second.. while getting some VERY wierd looks I'm sure!
Not looking forward to swaping this thing while it is still cold out.  Hope
it lasts till the salt clears off the roads so I can bring out the 4ktq!

yes, I've talked to Huw about it.  I was just puting a general post to see
what my options are.

Thanks, I'll need it!
