Our new 1981 Spider 2000 - Chatham, NJ

You're "no mechanic" and you've done work on the trans? Maybe there's hope for me, after all. The tranny is really terra incognita for me. Is something like a pilot or throwout bearing doable for a newbie? Here's where I really display my ignorance: How does a home mechanic pull the trans? How much does it weigh, anyway?[/quote]

Pulling this tranny is relatively simple. Weighs maybe 50-60 lbs?..You just need jack, stands, and wrench/socket set. Oh and Haynes bible

Kevin,

We are having a monthly breakfast Sun, January 11th, try to come down and meet the group. I think you have John Bonnels old car?

Ralph,

Sadly, Jan. 11th won't be possible as I am in the midst of some winter maintenance and upgrade work.

The PO showed me the name of the PPO in the maintenance files, and John Bonnell sounds right. I'll go back and take a look.
