How's it going guys, I need some advice here on what I should do...
I have a 1998 Ford Contour SVT that I bought in February of this year with 100K on the clock. Got the car cheap as a daily beater, but this car has been a nightmare. Went to do front brakes and turns out the ABS module (HCU) was shot and that wasn't a fun project to fix, let alone get parts. Then the trans cable came undone under the shifter. Now this...
...I was leaving for work in the morning, put the car in gear and proceed to take off then I hear a loud pop and immediately let off everything. I wasn't on the gas hardly at all and was in first might I add. I get out the car and see this, and then shut off the car.
After work I jack up the car and proceed to check underneath to diagnose the issue and come across this:
The car doesn't goes into all gears and isn't locked out but does not move in any gear. something clearly blew it out. Anyone see anything like this before? And more importantly, its looking like a new trans, rebuild, or sell as is/scrap?
Will I get anything scrapping it or trying to sell as is?
