i have a 92 si, with M2B4 tranny. after a long day of driving, i was on the high way, car wouldnt shift into 5th unless i really forced it in. from there i had problems with 3rd, and a little bit in 4th and 2nd. once in awhile when sitting in 1st, i would feel the car kinda start to pull, like it wanted to move. now its doing that more often. sometimes it barely wants to go into any gear, other times it shifts in just fine. i only have about 15000 on my stage 2 centerforce clutch and fidanza flywheel. the car still gets tire in 3rd gear, so i dont think the clutch is going, cuz if so, i def. wouldnt spin in 3rd gear. any suggestions please. sorry so long.

 

Sounds like it could be a linkage issue. Or possibly cutch related.

 

It sounds like your clutch isnt engauging all the way. Has your pedal felt a little weaker recently?

 

well see it doesnt do it allll the time but more often than not. idk if its just in my head, but every now and then i sorta feel like it doesnt have as much pressure on the pedal, but a very very slight difference if any.

 

seems like the problem i had a while back...clutch...

 

my clutch only has about 15000 miles on it, its a stage 2 centerforce, so its not like its a cheap clutch, and at that,... its not slipping at all.

what i was saying about when im sitting in gear and it wants to go, its like if you were sitting there, and barely let out on the clutch without any gas. and it only does it slightly then goes away and i sit there normally.

i dont see how it could be a fluid problem in the trans. if im having the problem just listed above. sorry, this wont let me post more than 5 posts a day it said, so ill have to keep editing this part to reply to you.

weres your idle? it doesnt seem bad..seems normal actually.

 

well..i do infact know the answer to that prob.

My green 96 lude vtec did the exact same thing. when i put my h22 from it in my white 94 si...i found that the fluid was Extremely Old and Very thick...you just need to drain and refill the trans with Honda MTF...

 

I wish it was that simple. 1st gear has been difficult for me to put in (mostly cold mornings) I've changed the tranny fluid with honda MTF and the problem is still present

 

check your clutch

 

My gears would not engage on my 92 s ,the hydraulic (sp) system was broken..cost me about 250 to replace..very tedious wrench job

 

i looked under the dash of my car today at the clutch pedal... i have a slight wetness of what seems to be brake fluid on the rod that pushes into the clutch master cylender. could this be my problem? im loosing pressure on the master cylender causing the clutch to not completely ingage all the time??

 

Thats what I was getting at on the last time i posted in this thread. Your master cylinder is bad, replace it and go ahead and replace the slave cylinder.

It takes a while to bleed, but once its finnished it works great.
