Ignore them? Heck, no! They are a constant source of entertainment!
Keep up the good work! Ooh, here is one now...

Quarks? Quantum mechanics in Triumph transmissions? I had no idea they were
so advanced. Wait a minute, don't Quantum mechanics work at Volkswagen
dealerships? You could get one of them to to take care of a Volkswagen Quantum
Sink!

All kidding aside, Teriann is absolutely right. If you have never taken apart
a transmission before, and would like to try it, don't start with one you need.
Go to a junkyard and get something they usually can't give away, some common
domestic transmission, get the book from the library and tear into it. Sell it
to a scrapyard if you give up on it.
When my Midget locked in first gear a couple of years ago, I had it redone by a
race-car mechanic. For a couple of hundred bucks I got a permanent fix for the
gear locking and better synchros. I probably never would have figured it all
out myself.
