1991 Honda Accord Problem! Help needed.
Hi. I recently bought a 1991 Honda Accord (Manual) that is in a pretty
good shape if it's not of the little rust at the wings and the fuel leak when the tank is full. All that is not a problem it will be fixed but there's a really annoying problem I'm experiencing and I'm not quite sure what causes it. The car almost never takes first gear unless I first put the car in second gear and then back in first gear. Sometimes it doesn't even take the second gear unless I put pressure on the shifter in order to make it go in which is not very good. Once the car is moving though it takes in any gear easily just as it should. What could be the problem? I just hope it's not the transmission because I bought this car for very cheap and I don't want to spend too much money on it but only the necessary. Would anyone know whats the cause of that shifting problem? Thanks to all. |

If so, the clutch is not fully releasing. Possibilities: Fluid level is low; air in the lines; leaking master/slave cylinders. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
