Sense I have to wait for the "Toy Car's" budget to get a little better, I thought I would take a look at why my 5th gear was a little wonky.
I think I found the answer!
Something happened to the synchronizer indent pens or spring. Cant tell what broke first. The strange think is all the pieces were in the main case, 5th gear is on the outside of the case in the tail housing. So I guess all the little bits found their way thru the oiling holes.
I can get a overhaul kit with all new bearing, and synchronizers for around $400 pricey but less than the motor stuff. So I think I'll keep busy doing the transmission while I wait for the new year.
