each gear has synchronizers to bring the oncoming gear to the correct speed before engaged.
with that...... switching gears and getting a grind.... could be synchros, if it does it in only one gear.

crankwalk sigh.. don't scare me with that shit.. which sometimes i wonder with my 4g64.. but you know.. too bad i got something like that earlier... had to replace clutch and ball bearings.. but that's another story..
yea thanks, i was thinking it was the synchros too.. just happens in 2nd.. now i'm wondering if it is a major problem, cause it still goes in gear.. and how much it might cost, i'm getting it looked at by a mechanic tomorrow morning in williamsburg, before i leave to go back to George Mason..
i'm new to cars and this forum..
