Hi all,
Once again I have a small list of things I am noticing and wonder if these
are "normal", "oh my gawd, stop driving" or somewhere in between:
- In fourth gear, under acceleration, the gearbox whines. Fluid level is
good, shifting is good. This is a non-syncro first gearbox.
- The axles pipes coming out of the diff appear to be "wet" with gear oil.
Nothing substantial just around the seam where the pipe goes into the diff.
- The clutch seems to have about a 2" travel before engaging. All of the
components are new. Could I simply be "breaking in" the clutch? It is a
'3a clutch not the '4 one.
Thanks
David A. Templeton
