Fw: throwout bearing question

[<eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Al has a problem with the trans eating throwout bearings. Chances are some 
of you trannie and interchange whizzes can help out somehow and it would be 
appreciated if you could share your expertise and possibly steer him in the 
right direction. Thanks in advance to all who might reply, and please be 
sure to copy your reply to Al.
