Thread-topic: [6pack] Transmission Question
Jumping out of gear upon deceleration can be the result of a number of
factors: the tips of the shift fork are worn, the dog teeth on the 3rd gear
are worn, or the teeth on the locking gear that carries the syncro cup are
worn.  If it goes into gear OK, it is likely a comb of the last two.

Whatever, to end the problem, the trans needs rebuilding.

Jumping out of third upon deceleration is usually an indication of a worn
synchro. No easy fix.

Best regards,

David.
