At first shifting transmission into gear was extremely difficult, and impossible a few times. I had thought that it was the linkage that was dried out and sticking. Transmission is skipping 3rd gear shift and slamming into overdrive with a nerve racking bang, especially at highway speeds when accelerating. Transmission has not been repaired at this time.
