In this latest episode I take the old internal combustion parts to the refuse centre and then pick up my new gearbox.

I found a local wreckers yard that had an old Mitsubishi Cordia gearbox for $150 so I snapped it up right away!

You'll notice the new gearbox doesn't have a gaping big hole in the side of it which helps a little...

It needs a serious clean up though. Looks like it was beaten with the oilly stick.

  • I reckon the engine was fine after all, we didn't know until we saw the REAL reason the car didn't go - the gearbox was dead. It's a pity as I could have sold it.

  • Hehehe, KTA Services and I didn't seem to hit it off for some reason. You can see why in the next video (Step 7 - Buying the Motor)

    ;)

  • Neighboors dog: blast it!

  • Two words: Power Washer.

    Best $75 I ever spent.

    Brown Upholstery? BLAST IT.

    Grey outdoor furniture? BLAST IT.

    Something otherwise dirty? BLAST THE HECK OUT OF IT.

    Just be sure to keep the nozzle far away when you start it, so you don't peel off carpet/plastic/skin

  • should have taken the old junk to scrap metal, would have gotten some money + it's good for the environment to recycle :P

  • Isn't it bad for it to wash it out with soap and water?

  • Hey Gav do you know of any company that sells a one speed reduction gearbox for reasonably cheap?

  • Old gearbox.

  • Wow, you're sure big on cleanliness, aren't you? ;)

  • It would have been nice to know just how much weight you pulled out of the car in petrol parts......

  • wow, $30 less than the car itself, just for a transaxle!

  • LOL - All the power and performance of two children !
