So when i put it in reverse i have to hold it there or it will kick me out why would it do that??? 99 ls tranny

 

cause it's not all the way in or your tranny is going to go soon.

When shiting into reverse you must do this first

1) come to a complete stop
2) shift into another gear, proably first
3) keep the clutch in the whole time
4) then shift into reverse calmly and cleanly.
5) Now let the clutch up and back up with out running over your neighbours cat.

Reverse doesn't have a syncro so you must use the syncro of another gear to stop the lay shaft from spinning.

Cheers.

 

um no aint that simple

 

does it pop out of 5th too?

 

no 5th is fine just reverse it goes in it for like 3 seconds then pops out ?????

 

check your transmission oil, if it pops out of R it will start to pop out of 5th real soon!

 

why would 5th have anything to do w/ reverse????
