Re: tranny blues

>It is an '84 5000S FWD 5-speed w/150K miles and a transmission that made it
home
but will no longer go in ANY gear(s). I am thinking of purchasing a used one
with 87Kmi. on it and putting a new clutch/pressure plate/throw out bearing
and tranny flush with Red-Line synthetic or Amsoil. What do you think??
BTW, I can get the tranny for $75.00 US is that reasonable???
If it were any cheaper it would be free, right? Good idea to do the clutch
while you're in there. I think this can all be done under the car without
moving the engine. Doing it yourself? If not you might consider a
transmission specialist as opposed to dealership. Good luck.
