Re: Transmission
again im just guessing
the selector fork gets worn down so it can get all the way in gear

Re: Transmission
You have to take the trans apart and check the components. It could be a worn 4th gear (input shaft), the slider sleeve (synchro sleeve), the shiftfork, or a combination thereof.PNWSpider wrote:So my 79 Spider transmission likes to kick out of 4th gear, what am i looking for to be the cause of this, is there a 4th gear syncro in here? any help is much appreciated
