        If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

        • Got a replacement 5-speed yesterday, and picked up 3 quarts of Pennzoil Synchromesh. Also some engine degreaser to get all the old oil off the replacement tranny. lol

                    • Finally got to install my windshield washer tank with the new pump.
                      Beautiful 75 degrees & no rain.
                      It works perfect ,& I get to use the Smart Car triple spray .
                      Cudos to bravekozak for a great idea.
                      Added some rep. for him.

                      • How tough to install the washer tank? Just the drivers side wheel well liner?

                            • Last night we got most of the stuff connecting to the engine and transmission unhooked, and moved out of the way. Just forgot to bring a jack. DOH!! Going back after work today to finish the job.

                              Hopefully I will be driving my Festy home tonight with a fully functional 5-speed.

                              • Old transmission is off, and the replacement bolted onto the engine, and all both back in and bolted to the car. Now to put everything back together. Taking so much time, because we are working with limited light, no air tools, in a cold garage, and only doing things a few hours at a time before I have to pack back up and head home.

                                Axles came out without too much of a fight, my balljoints didn't want to pop out of the knuckles, so we just popped the tie-rods out instead for the clearance for the axles.
