Having found that my slopping shifting was due to an absence of the firewall bushing. I proceeded to attempt to install one. After 2 hours of frustration and pain, I abandoned my effort to fight another day. Does anyone have an easy way(or easier) to install this bushing? Any comments are greatly appreciated- Rolf

I didn't get mine hot enough when I tried, but used a long bolt with a washer to act as a press to get it in... worked like a champ.

I used the boiled water method- timed it and once under the car took me 10 seconds to get it in! Worked like a charm and i owe it all to you- Thank you again-Rolf |
