Dale:
Thanks for the feedback. Two questions: how much was it to do the tranny work? Why did you do the clutch?
I am wondering how long I can expect the clutch to last...mostly highway/rural miles, but at about 217,000 miles I am starting to wonder. I do use engine braking ( notably NOT "clutch braking") but otherwise I am a conservative driver (twin 8 yo boys in the car with me).
Also, there is not much rust on the car (some on edge of hatch, both front quarter panels around wheel well trim) so I am wondering if it is worth keeping the car going. I love this car, warts and all, and I just put a killer radio in it...original speakers still sound pretty good to me!
