The car is being driven. but by all means, not grinding it to get it into gear.
So for its only first gear that im really only having the trouble with. it still shifts into gear at a complete stop. So as far as stop signs and what not, i use second. which i know isnt a good thing. But it works.At stop lights is when i will have tha time to be able to let it idle all the way down and then shift into first. Can synchromesh be put in after the fact, now that its already happened? Or only when its in working order?
