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.

Sounds like your clutch is dragging. 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?
