[QUOTE="JamesK, post: 1205415, member: 1858"] rPGoatBoy, thanks for the glimmer of hope, this is what I'm trying to do now. One of the other, potentially more serious things I am concerned about is the part of the case where the A engines have the Gear Position Sensor unit. On the AE engine this part of the casing looks quite different, at least on the outside. What's got me worried is that it is not something that could be "unbolted" and therefore swappable. It might be more evident after examining the inside of the cases, but to my laymen eye not from the outside. As for reusing my A shift barrel, I would certainly consider that, once it can be inspected. Towards the end my gearbox was starting to jump out of 2nd gear with higher frequency and the syncro was not as good as it once was. Funny enough, I'm still on the original clutch and it wasn't slipping yet [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif[/IMG] I hope I have the opportunity to take plenty of pics as it would mean that I can "fix" this AE engine.
