Default anti venom mod in..

10 thumbs up for this mod
First I changed out the trans fluid for Synchromax, small improvement
Second, adjusted my shifter and that made a huge difference (was way out of adjustment)
Thirdly, I tried the anti venom mod today and went with a thick 1/8" washer.

I am liking the shifting now!

I see now that I should have gone in order 2,3,1

I liked this $1.50 mod as well. Well worth the effort.

Do you have a short-shifter installed? I can't imagine the sloppy feel of the stock shifter with anti-venom...
