Purchased a transmission Posted by JerseySaab [Email] (#666) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JerseySaab) on Fri, 4 Nov 2016 12:39:53 In Reply to: Re: Another option..., cgwiz [Profile/Gallery] , Thu, 3 Nov 2016 12:47:47 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Thanks for the tip, I called in and gave credit card info to hold the transmission in Williamstown. It should interchange just fine with the '97, and with 95K miles there's a strong likelihood it's still good. I'll be going out to pick it up on Monday or Tuesday. We're supposed to have good weather next week so I may be able to get at least some work done on it.
I must have rocks in my head to be doing this. But I figure it's worth the gamble of $175 and some grunt work - all right, a lot of grunt work - to see if the car can be salvaged. (I also discovered I have to fix a leaky fuel line coming out of the fuel filter. Will probably use a nylon fuel line union and a short length of fuel injection hose. It never ends...)
