Hello Network,

   I have a 74 TR-6 and have recently experienced a noise from the 
gearbox.  When I accelerate a noise only heard in fourth gear
disappears.  The noise comes back when I let off the accelerator.
When I put the clutch in it disappears again.  The noise sounds
like a ratchety (is that a word) whine.  I think the problem is
excessive backlash in that particular gear.  Any other ideas?

Mark.
