Ok, my 92's developed a slight tranny issue. 2nd grinds pretty bad when trying to shift into it, whether it be from 1-2 or 3-2. It doesn't do it all the time, mainly at rpms above 1500, and when I pull it into gear slowly, it doesn't do it either. My gut instinct tells me it's the syncro, but I can't see why...I've never missed, grinded, or raked 2nd...and the only time it really gets driven hard is at the track. Here's what is making me wonder though. The shifter...when it's in 3rd,4th,5th, or reverse, it's nice and tight only in those gears. When it's in 1st or 2nd, it's very sloppy, like about 3/4" of wiggle room back and forth on the shifter. I'm wondering if one time at the track, I could've bent something in/on the shifter somehow, and it's not engaging 2nd right.
Sorry for my lack of knowledge on what makes up a manual tranny. I've never had to mess with one before. Either way it's no real worry, I've got a good spare that I can throw in it. How tough is it to swap these things...easier or harder than an auto? Any insight appreciated.
