So i got back into town last night and this morning I started to take a look inot this in a little more detail.

Once all the gear stick gators and a couple of screws where removed i had a quick look and the there does not seem to be much that is wrong under the shifter apart from perishing rubber gator.

So now i am thinking tat the rod that runs forward from the shifter is loose etc. but i am not sure how i can inspect this as it is on the top of the gearbox. is there an inspection hatch on the top/side of the tunnel or do i have to drop the box? or would there be enought room for inspection if i just jacking up the car?

Ww

P.S its funny how you get to take a dive into the past of your car when you start to remove stuff, i found a sprinkling of tobacco and a small 10p size nugget of hash wrapped in cling film. good knows how long that had been there for and thank god that I found it before the filth found it on one of there routine stop



P.P.S i just tried to jack he car u by the jacking points and the jack point loop just bent like butter. i guess that another task to add to the list!
