So on top of needing new brake lines on the aspire, the speedometer had quit. Turned out the speed sensor's shaft (mechanical speedometer) siezed and the nylon gear sheared off. When I pulled the sensor out, i tried to grab the gear w/ the one finger i could reach inside. I bumped it deeper into the tranny (the sensor inserts from the top).
Anyone have an idea of how to get it out w/o pulling the tranny out (again)? Anyone have a boroscope so i can find the bugger?
Or, will a nylon gear just float around and not casue any problems?
Or, will it just get chewed up by the syncros/etc and come out in the next fluid change?
I really don't want to pull the tranny out, again. FWD cars are the worst
