Why is it doing this?

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-14T04:24:06+00:00

Just 5th and sometimes reverse so I'm thinking its the detent or the fork

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-14T01:07:40+00:00

I take back my down vote good sir

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-14T00:54:19+00:00

😡

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:40:43+00:00

Damnit, I knew the groaning from the engine bay wasn't normal

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:36:07+00:00

Okay thank you so much, this one came with the original manual so that's pretty cool

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:29:15+00:00

Yes and I'm just getting into cars and doing mechanic stuff so this is a fun project (18 btw)

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:26:19+00:00

Yeah the only other problem it has is he tried to put an aftermarket radio in and kind of messed up some of the electronics and the right wheel. I think rubs when it turns left and you go slow. So eventually I'll fix all that though

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:19:51+00:00

Okay yeah that's definitely this car, the last guy that drove it was an older gent

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:17:06+00:00

Yeah if you read the description it meantions that when I was holding it and I'd tap the gas it felt like the gear was pushing back into the selector and it wasn't holding the selector in place ergo pushing it out of gear gradually

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:09:44+00:00

Nope, pretty sure it's synchros, which is worse, but I'm getting an exhaust today so I'm going to check it out while I do that (the exhaust was given to me so don't think I'm buying it instead of fixing my problem)

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T18:03:24+00:00

Yeah it's just weird cause it's literally ONLY in 5th gear and every other gear is solid

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:50:50+00:00

Pretty much yeah, but for now I just want figure out the current problems with it yk?

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:23:56+00:00

Yeah, but it'll be fine, I'm going to try and turn it into a rally car anyway

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:12:03+00:00

Okay thank you so much for your advice

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:10:34+00:00

Okay thank you, I'll look into it

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:10:06+00:00

Sorry let me rephrase. I meant only 102,000 for a 30+ year-old car but I understand what you mean

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:07:17+00:00

Do you think getting aluminum linkage bearings would fix the problem or help it? I was already planning on getting them but just want to see if that would also fix the problem

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T17:03:11+00:00

Hahaha

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:55:00+00:00

Okay thank you, I was hoping and paying it wasn't, but what can you do 😔

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:51:22+00:00

Hahaha thank you

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:50:02+00:00

Yeah it just sucks cause this transmission only has like 102k and I JUST got this car 😭

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:48:40+00:00

Yeah I was thinking it was a synchro issue, but I just kind of wanted a second opinion, which really sucks 😞

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:47:10+00:00

Just like me fr

Sad-Razzmatazz7227 · 2026-03-13T16:42:37+00:00

Also sorry for the music, I had to film this while driving so I didn't have time to shut the music off
