I want someone to look over the TKO 500 in my car. When I had the fluid changed when I first got the car there was a lot of water/condensation in the fluid. I know the car sat for a while and then was driven again, I am assuming that where the water came from. The tranny is now starting to grind in every downshift into 3rd and 4th. Its fine for the most part with upshifts with an occasional grind into 3rd. I am assuming synchros but I would like a professional give it a once over and do what needs to be done. Any suggestions for people out on the island? Thanks

Larry
