I didn't know you had a CAI! If I knew that then yeah, get a hydro shield to protect that thing! I have a CAI coming in and a hydro shield is on it's way as well!

You're so unappreciative Christal!

 

Glad I got a decent answer out of someone
Of course it would be taken dirty!
I'm unappreciative, demanding, facepalm-worthy? You're an idgit.

Now on to threadjacking

 

 

that hurts, i said i didnt know about trannys and i said the boggin was cause of a wet filter.

 

Mine used to do this with first gear all the time, before I had the transmission rebuilt. So much torque that it would pop out of first if you were on it hard, lol.

I wouldnt be worried tho C..

When a syncro is wearing down, you will start grinding into w/e gear the syncro is going in. If you have to double-clutch into gear, to get it in w/out grinding, its your syncro. By double clutching, you are bypassing the need to use the syncro. This is why some old cars/trucks needed to be double clutched, before transmissions had syncros..

Another possibility. On the F35 there is two little springs for 5th, they are accesible if you take the end-plate off the trans. These lil springs keep the car in gear. It is POSSIBLE that they are not as strong as they were 103k miles ago and they are weaker at keeping her in gear.

 

Its all good, I like when the ladies beat me up

 

I didn't see that! Sowwy!
I've never had to double clutch. But I have had rare occasions where I'd go to park into 1st and can't get it to go into gear. I'll have to throw into R and then into 1st. Weird, huh? Other than that, this is the first problem I've encountered.

 

Sometimes they do that. I usually throw mine in 2nd and then back in 1st. And if shes being picky, ill let the wheels roll less than an inch and it will go in. My transmission has brand new internals, totally rebuilt. This is normal.

 

i wanna listen C' talk about driving stick again

 

LMAO! My first car ('92 RS 305 5.0L) was the car I learned stick on

 

Lol I learned to drive stick on a 93 Nissan Pickup. 3 1/2" lift. Big ol BFGs. Miss that truck...

 

Lifted trucks :drool:

I loved my '92 RS... it was a shame a stoned girl crossed the interstate and hit me and a Jeff. Co. cop head on @ 130mph total combined impact I had to go to the hospital

 

Oh ****, ouch! Atleast you were ok. That sounds like it could have been REALLY bad!!

 

It would have been if the 3rd generations didn't have such long noses and a good frame. We had sub frame connectors, too. I wanted to beat that b*tch's ass when I realized what happened and crawled out of the car. Her bf and brother were saying stuff like, "Man, we shouldn't have done this! OMG, you hit a cop! We r so fucked if we take a **** test! OMG, what are our moms gonna do?!?!" I wanted to punch her in the face... till I saw what it did to her. She had internal bleeding (no seatbelt), fractured skull, broken nose, broken ribs, broken arm, broken leg, and was in ICU for 16 weeks.

I hope she learned a VALUABLE lesson.

I just walked away with pain meds and a scratch on my right wrist from my watch. Thank God I was wearing my seatbelt.

 

Yeah, hopefully she did!

I ALWAYS wear my seatbelt... NO reason not to. I yell at my friends if they dont..

 

I won't move the car until everyone has their seatbelt on. I swear by seatbelts... could car less for airbags after that damn wreck, tho. Airbags are stupid IMO.

I've pulled over on the interstate bc a friend took her seatbelt off. I told her to walk or put it back on. It took her a few minutes but she decided it was best to ride in the AC instead of 110* Alabama humid heat
