Serendipity! I was just about to start a similar thread.
I realized today two things. First, that my transmission felt like someone filled the shifter boot with oatmeal this morning, and it wasn't even below freezing yet. Second, that my normal commute once the new job starts up is only going to be about 9 miles.
Even if I wasn't thinking about FE, all those cold miles are going to be hard on my old Metro.
I'm going to try to swap out for Synchromesh in the trans as soon as I can, but I was thinking of trying to do some electric heating for it and the engine oil as well. Couple hours in the morning on a timer, I was hoping would do the trick.
How effective are the pad type?
