PLS HELP
TIA

 

anyone? iknow im a noob but damn someone could at least lie to me or tell me that my egein is pice of **** and thats why its messing up or somthing

 

First off, tranny problem have nothing to do with the motor. Secondly, it sounds like your syncro's are bad, since your grinding into third and second wont stay in.

 

i would say synchro's too, or even bad motor mounts.

my cousin was missing his rear motor mount and it would cause the car to pop out of gear and grind.
