Everyone..thanks for the replys.

Red Beard, i've printed out your article and am reading it carefully. Its a great starting point....a major help getting up the curve. Thanks.

Grady, it a 1971 2.2S... I don't have the transmisson number handy. But its correct for that year. I've history for the car since 1986 and there is no mention of any tranny work. Again reference photos are best here as i'll be struggling to identify whats good or bad without them. Redbeards article is good hear...I need to read again and again.

Thanks again,

Sean
