Hello all.  I asked this question as part of another topic yesterday and
since nobody responded, I thought I'd take another go at it.  When
downshifting into 2nd gear, the transmission pops out and back into neutral
if the engine is revving high -- say above 4,000 RPM.  Otherwise, it works
fine and everything else shifts smooth and normal.  What's beginning to
fail?  Thanks.
