1st gear syncro bad. Posted by Ryan [Email] (#2222) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Ryan) on Fri, 21 Aug 2009 17:28:55 In Reply to: Shift adjustment problems on 1990 9Ks, Ryan [Profile/Gallery] , Wed, 19 Aug 2009 15:03:51 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
It was recommended that I shift from 2nd to 1st so it won't grind. Problem is, it still will grind every once in a while, and that grinding immediately binds everything up so that I only have first gear and a little bit of neutral below first gear. I let the car roll back, drive forward a bit, let it roll back, drive forward a bit. It grudgingly releases and I have all five gears back.
I guess I'll call ScanWest back on Monday morning and start looking at cost vs. benefit of rebuilding the tranny on a car that has 254K miles on it.
