Default Help!!!!!

Ok :conehead =me but I dropped a hurst adjuster screw(and spring) in my trans tunnel while swapping springs........I tried the ole magnet on the hangar trick...no luck.....tried forward and reverse to see if it would move....nothing!

Looked all around on the ground to see if it came out...nothing.....Now what? will it "screw" anything up if left in there? Any ideas on how to get it out?
:(

Turn the car upside down and shake it until it falls out. :)

Can you see it in there? I think if it's in the tunnel and not inside the transmission it shouldn't be a problem.

Go and buy another screw and spring, that should not be a problem inside there.

Ok I turned the car upside down and the only thing that fell out was some lost coins from under the seat and my mats...no Hurst screws.....lol

I just hope it will not find its way into the trans...not sure what the structure looks like inside......I will take off the converters and the closeout panel once I find out whats involved......and buy some new screws/springs..guess I need to buy from Mr Gasket?????l

Thanks for the posts buds!
