My 89 5 speed has a tough time getting into first sometimes, only while warm. I have new syncros in there, but the replacement ones were the all brass that are slightly different than stock, I believe. I'm running Amsoil ATF synthetic and also the friction modifier (even though I think Amsoil ATF has friction modifier in it). Anyone else have trouble with their replacement synchros? I can get it into gear, just feels like I have to force it a little too much while warm. I only notice this in first.
Another related thing is that it seems much easier to take off from a stop while the car is cold. I have an aluminum flywheel and I'm wondering if this heats up more than the steel one causing me to have to give it more gas to avoid killing it.
I should just drive this car in the cold mornings and call it good
Anyone have similar problems so that I can at least feel better?
