A while back I'm having trouble getting trans into 3rd gear. Then one day, I feel a "clunk" going into 3rd, after which 3rd gear is unsynchronized. All other gears operate fine. I can also get into 3rd at a standing stop. Took the top off the trans this week, expecting to see the 2nd/3rd synchro...

OK, I finally found time to replace the leaky Hydraulic Head. I lined up the red tooth with the pointer in the fuel control rod window. Then tried to get the head off. After a little prying, it came off. Looking closely at the metal stamping on top of the drive gear, I see that it's bent up...

After digging through the forum for a while, I still have a question: As part of brake system maintenance, has anyone just replaced all of the steel brake lines, rather than wait for one to fail? I've found info on using stainless steel "generic" replacement line, is that the best way to do this?
