Cidra,

It turns out, one of my family members is flying out to Florida for two months.
And on top of that, I found out my DSM is NOT a 1996, rather a 1995 one (checked by VIN). The previous owner told me it was a 1996 Eclipse...?
I'm extremely excited for what's going to happen. There's a high chance he might send down a transmission for me from the USA (I've recently got booted off my University and I won't get paid, however I will sign up again). Let's pray that I can get the car working again and I do the repairs by myself.
P.S: Dumb question: What's the best transmission fluid for the manual 420a trans? I heard it was the Synchromesh. However, I want to make sure it is the Synchromesh so I also tell my family member to get that as well. Puerto Rico is SCARCE with DSMs, and most parts are extremely expensive here. It would be nice getting some parts overseas.
