Hey guys, I changed the gear oil in the manual transaxle of my '94 GT, and it started to grind a little bit going into third gear. This only happened for a few minutes until the car was warmed up, then everything would be fine. Anyway, I thought the problem might be due to me using synthetic gear oil so I changed it back to conventional, but the same thing is still happening. Any ideas? I'm using the recommended SAE 75W 90. I would appreciate some help. Thanks

My tranny has really started acting up lately. It used sometimes be hard to put into first until I came to a dead stop. Now it's hard to get into any gear at all. It feels like I'm gonna break the stick or the plastic mount underneath. If the car is rolling it feels like it is hard to get in and then will just drop in. If I forget to put it in 1st before I stop rolling to a stop it feels really hard to get in but will go in. Someone told me I need to change out a plastic bushing at the tranny where the linkage goes and that it is due to slamming into gear when racing.
Any ideas?
