Working on a 1990 Acura Integra with B18 Non Vtec.

Firstly its really hard to get it into gear. You have to put alot of force onto the stick to get it into a gear.

My main concern is that when I put it into a gear the stick still moves around like its in neutral. BUT its still in gear.

Anyone know why this is happening?

This is my first time dealing with a cable clutch

 

Shift linkage is worn out,

Where the linkage hooks to the trans there is a joint there where a roll pin (bitch pin) keeps it intact. That joint is most likely worn out from age and milage.

You can get a Mil spec 3/4" x 3/4" non splined joint at summitracing.com and cut out your old floppy joint and weld this one in that provides a no slop shift linkage.

 

Bushings from the linkage to the shifter and bushings under shifter have probably seen better days as well

 

Thanks guys. I will look into getting that replaced.
