Never say never.....are you sure?
With the GREAT support of some members I managed to get a tranny shaft seal oil leak fixed from my GE "myself" when I was not even aware it had oil seals and where they were located....I didn't know almost anything...
I get more used then with it and also changed belt and pump.....
Now I just do not know that much about 1-18s mechanical, but what I know is that usually some things looks more difficult than what they really are....
What I want to say is that in this website you will surely find some kind members who can help you and assist you if you ask, so I'm just asking you now if before giving it away you're sure that a fixing attempt should not be considered in your case....
Just saying that you could at least try, it depends from how worth it is for you....
Anyway I'm also sure that in case you keep thinking to give it away it it will be gone in no time.....
Good luck whatever you decide!
