RE: [T3] 2 more questions


Cool.  Sorry for the misinfo.  The Beetle I had that was pooping out of gear
constantly got hit by a drunk while parked, so I never got a chance to get
the tranny out to test that theory.

	Popping out of gear is not caused by the synchros... the job that
synchros do
	are spinning up the next higher/lower gear which you are shifting
to, up to the
	same speed, allowing the gears to mesh properly without
gØÄè.....

	popping out of gear could be caused by misadjusted shift forks, or
damaged
	gears....
