Turns out mine had a 2nd gear that was missing a tooth or two which was causing it to jump out of gear. While we were in there replaced 2nd gear synchro along with some other parts. Their number is 770-932-5267 if anyone needs this service done.
Jim fixed mine too. Jakes motor was too much for it. Jim also rebuilt my 968 6 speed a few years ago. I head the dreaded pinion bearing problem, but he went through the whole thing replacing just the parts that were worn. The difference in the way that car runs is amazing. That was an expensive job but it took a lot of time.
