Sorry for the hijack, but I've asked this question a few times in other related threads.

This condition describes my transmission. Maybe a couple of seconds before it
'clunks' into reverse, it also flares between gears.

is my transmission done? I've been holding out hope that if I deal with all
the vacuum oddities, and adjust things, it'll straighten out. But I don't
want to spend any more time/money attempting to fix a fatal illness in vain.

Thanks kindly in advance.
