I've got a 90 BII, auto that is no good. I've been looking for a while, calling all over the state for a mazda 5 speed. I got one quote for $1500 and one for $450 plus some fees or something. I can get an FM 146 for $150 probably, or definantly one for $350. All of those numbers are before clutch, pedals, etc.
I would really prefer to not throw $600 into the thing, which the chance it could just die and become even a bigger money trap.
So my question is can I get away with a FM 146 for fairly simple driving? It won't be going more than 15 miles on the road at a time, and won't be in any serious off road situations. And per say it does go out, is it possible to rebuild it reasonably? thanks..
