Tranny question
Hey guys,
I was just wondering what could be the cause or causes of rough transmissions? I got a '92 Accord standard trans. with ~132K. Only problem is that it's kinda rough to get it into first gear. I try shifting into second, then first but engages like half way in. This doesn't occur always, but at a stand-still like when I'm at a light. Sometimes no problems, sometimes by doing second than first it works, sometimes nothing works at all and I feel scared that I'm going to break something by the force I use to shove it into first. Any comments? Dave P.S. I just got the trans. fluid changed also. |

Can be caused by low fluid / air in the clutch reservoir (if you have one), incorrect adjustment, broken clutch (springs / levers) badly warped disk, pilot bearing siezing up. Does it work perfectly if the engine isn't running? 'Curly' |
