1st and reverse, no other gears
Just picked up a 96 accord with the 2.2? 4cyl 5sp.
The car looks good starts and runs but cant get anything but 1st and reverse gears. Is there something I should check before I start searching for a new transmission. I don't think the clutch is the culprit, the reservoir is full, the clutch engages smoothly, transmission shifts into fwd and reverse no problems. |
off topic.. its prob a 2.3l
but anywayz... if you can engage in 1st gear, then your prob not catching for any other gears. 1 way or another, ur gonna end up having to get into the tranny, whether its a rebuild or a new 1. some ppl suggest flushing out the tranny fluid and putting a little synthetic in, but that wont fix your problem |
Can you shift into all gears when the engine is turned off?
Have someone try to shift while you watch the cables & cranks on top of the transmission. Seems like they're OK because one cable does fore/aft motion of the stick, which you have; other cable does side-to-side motion, which you also must have to get from 1st to rev. ps. you were right, it should be 2.2 liters. |
Cables
This is a 96, dont see any cables, seems like the linkages/cables are under the engine in back... on the otherhand I have a 01 parts car that came with the 96, I can see cables on it...will these 2 trannys interchange?

Transmissions will bolt up, it's still an F-series engine. But I don't know whether they did anything different with the shifter linkage. Or for that matter the engine mounts. Those cables should be in about the same place; maybe covered up with air inlets & battery trays?

Here's pictures of the 1996 shift lever & cables. Also a picture of the shift arms on the transmission.
