3953, 5 speed transmissions - Who knows about them? HELP!!
Posted by turbosrule, Jun-23-01 04:22 PM
Coming out of first real hard, then I went to second and found there was no second!!!???? Seems first, third, and fifth shift fine, but second, fourth, and reverse flops right back out.

I think somebody had posted something about a cylinoid or something like that? Can someone help???

Sounds like your 2nd gear snychro is out bud. That means rebuild.

sorry man but any gears that "flop" out of gear means dog teeth and synchros are shot. It's not too bad to have one rebuilt though.

On one of my older cars I had the same prob and it turned out to be one of the motor mounts was tweaked and the engine shifted funny and kept me from hitting the bottom half of the shift pattern. Replaced that and all was well...

You don't need a rebuild if you can't get into 2 4 and reverse, all you need to do is adjust the shifter linkage. I think there is a procedure in the manual, but I've never done it so, I can't give any tips.
