Tell you what:
Find teardown instructions for the stinkin Mazda trannie I have...

That'll help us get started....

Speculative mid-adventures should come behind pre-existing jobs left dangling, wouldn't you agree?

the ol First things first idea?

Well step by step teardown so I don't have to waste tons of time hammering the cases into rubble cause I didn't "withdraw 6mm pin with Maz-dog Special tool 432987"

clutch and flywheel stage 2 what ever they mean by that for the
ranger trans in the focus. cheap junk 130 for both but it will get
a few miles to see how the car works.
