well i am mechanically inclined BUT remember i do autobody not mechanical lol
SO heres the story Your driving, your going faster than 50km/h and u go to shift into 3rd and it grinds bad.....you do it when your going slower it doesnt do that....and well lets just say that more than once i go to ds into 3rd and it doesnt wanna go in....... syncro? transmission? i know its easier to guess at what it is instead of seeing it but what do you guys think it is? just because it will do it sometimes and not other times im thinkin it may be the syncro.... ideas.. --------------------  FEEN |

Well we have had the car since i joined so less than one month and we are still trying to get everything else right so tranny fluid wasnt the first thing, and the higher i shift the worse the grinding gets, if i go low then it wont :S works weird, and it terrible when down shifting so i now entirely skip 3rd gear and brake a little bit more.....i am almost apt to not to even use 3rd gear the sound drives me crazy!
and yea dont mind putting some money into it of course till i get my fd lmao then its an arguement of what car the money goes to  i cant wait! lol and thanks for the pic of the syncromesh! My .02 not to be a suck hole but i love this site, its the first place that im actually taken seriously being a woman in the trade and on the site! AND that im not degraded and if i say something wrong i dont get completely flamed...Appreciate that! -------------------- FEEN |

Oh thats hot =o lol  I suggest someone with a 6GC try using the GM Synchromesh friction modified. It's better than the ordinary synchromesh. I can provide the part number for US and Canadian members if anyone is interested. -------------------- '89 3.1L Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme
