Prelude transmission problem

Hello,

I drive a 94 Accord with a H22a swap. This is a 96 Vtec Prelude motor. I have a tranny problem.

When the car is off, the tranny does not go into 4th gear unless i force it. Same for 5th, but it does not take as much force.

When I am driving the car, first and second gear go in no problem. 3rd has a little trouble, 4th does not really go in (unless it does sometimes, w/o too much force) and 5th gear will go in sometimes, and then somtimes it goes in half way and when I release the clutch it will pop out. What is the problem?

Clutch, linkages, the tranny itself?

Thank you for your help, Ellis.

Re: Prelude transmission problem

Have you inspected the linkage? Doesn't appear to be a clutch problem, because you can get it into 1st and reverse with the engine running and you didn't mention anything about slipping.
