neil,

at least you got all the parts now and you should be able to pull another gearbox out a car from the breakers yard for not a lot of cash...

Good luck

Phil

PS: sell it now after all your effort and youre a dick.

could do ian, but the engine is running sweet, no probs with that, just the gear box needs to be great. i think i foudn out it was the input shaft baring.

But then its gone straight back on the car!

Just annoying me now. but going to try and strip it asap and get hold of another box soon. maybe replace what i can on it.

These things happen.

Hopefully it is the gearbox. I would be more incline to check your linkage is set correctly Seems very soon to have gone.
