aving trouble with the tranny getting stuck in two gears. Not good.&nb=
sp; It occurs when trying to go forward after putting it in reverse It won't=
go into any forward gear. Did I perhaps bend something getting it back into=
the tunnel on replacing the motor? I didn't do anything to the tranny=
when out of the car. I did clean it up and repaint before re-en=
try. It was suggested that I cleaned it too good and it needed t=
o be relubed on the rods and levers. That did seem to help but it stil=
l gets stuck on occasion and I can release it by putting it back into revers=
e. That is the good news. I had to get under the car and hit the lever=
before to pop it out of gear. The levers all line up where the=
y should be under the shifter. Fluid level is good. Is the fluid=
correct( valvoline gear oil--high performance 80-90w )? Any suggestio=
ns would be appreciated. Russ &nbs=
