Havent seen many of these types of threads... So I decided to create one. It's a testament to the people on this thread that someone like me (most major job had been swapping an alternator) was able to swap out my 12a with a low milage 12a and tranny. Just like to give props where props are due... For any other new members out there...

The key is search... even when I thought I was the only one with this problem (i.e flywheel removal) I found information in this forum. Try all different search combos until you hit what you need and when you cant find it start a thread and within hours the senior members on this site are ready with answers. Anyhow for you guys that are 500+ posts... Thanks! keep up the great work!!!

You guys have proven its much easier to learn from others mistakes and experience than just guessing... and I'm glad you break the mechanics code of silence to help people like me....

Just got her started again last night!!!
