<x-flowed> Hi Russ, If it's not too much trouble, it would be great if you could take a look at the lever in your extra transmission. I'm just looking to get it ballparked -- I expect that the cable adjustment can compensate quite well if it's just a bit off. My suspicion is that the inner and outer levers are very close to parallel, but that when the outer lever is vertical, the inner lever is rotated a little bit toward the front of the car. If you could even confirm this general offset, that would be helpful. Thanks! -Greg p.s.: I'll cc this message to the list, in case anybody happens to being a fluid change this weekend, or has a spare tranny that's easier to get to...
