I've missed a couple of 3rd gear shifts in the last few outings to the track. Well, today I crunched on my 1st and 2nd time trials, missed completely on my 1st elimination run and it crunches everytime now. I've been anticipating this but expected it to last a little longer with the Synchromesh fluid instead of the Mercon. The blockers actually lasted longer with the Mercon so I'm switching back. If Synchromesh is so good I'd noticed some benefit along the way but didn't, nada. Not quite 2 years before the blocker went. My last one with the Mercon lasted just over 2 years. The spare goes in this week, gotta run again next weekend. I finally get my reaction times down, wasted a .011 and a .079, and the tranny goes, sigh.
