1st works fine. I didn’t force it, just shifted like normal, and knew something was wrong when there was a grinding noise. Hopefully we don’t have to push it. I once owned a stick shift car that the starter didn’t work, we had to push start it each time lol at least until I change the starter.
Yeah. You probably just blew up that reverse idler then. Not sure if that is easier or harder to fix TBH. Disassembling the whole transmission isn't something I wouldn't do, but I could see myself dropping in a junkyard transmission, and doing my clutch and rear main seal at the same time since you're going to have everything off and drained anyway.
Sad thing is the car only haas about 60,000 miles and the clutch bearing died about a month ago. Wasted $2,000 to have a new clutch installed because I’m on raw land and i have not built my garage yet.
Once I build my garage I plan to have a concrete pad poured so I can add a car lift. Might be a few years until I can work on this car and it’s our only car at the moment and I live in the middle of nowhere.
But good news I did buy a pickup truck on Tuesday, they are mailing the keys, title, bill of sale. So hopefully by next week we have another vehicle to drive around here. Sadly the owner died, but that’s how I got a great price on it.
I too, killed the last owner of my car to get a good deal.
