i've noticed that problem only a couplea times in my 01 only going into 3rd, and not trying to shift too fast. but i never noticed it on my old 98... it doesn't really happen enough for me to be concerned. whenever it happens i just assume i got lazy with the shifting, but it is weird that it's only ever happend shifting 2-3.

Well mine is a 2001, B3000 and do the same at thrird.
I have notice it does it when I shift to fast, as yours is not all the time but
enough to make me preocupate.
Also does any body knows if its recomended an grease/oil change of this manual trannies, mine have 65,000 miles, what oil do you recomende?
And what grades?
Thanks

You should only put Mercon (Mercon is a grade, not a brand) ATF in the transmission. Gear oil will damage it.
