My GO was tired after all that. She needs to rest now. So I tucked her into the shop and put a blanky on her and a fan under the back as usual to keep air movement under the car.

3600.8 miles and she's ready for Spring. I also had to update my signature and avatar. :happy feet:

Did you spend "as" much time w/ Tana today?

It is her birthday. :tease:
After I ordered some mods from Jay Tucker, I called my girl Tana to thank her for letting me buy the carbon Fibre fuse box cover and radiator cover. :hysterical:

Did they give any info Rob ? I'm just wondering what the problem is. If I should fix this myself. If its just the clutch then I'll do it. If it needs the trans replaced because its part of the problem then they need to fix it.

The transmission has a highly polished input shaft. The Clutch Hub is changed too.
