So I've been having a problem with third gear. When shifting through gears some times 3rd grinds when going from 2nd to 3rd. But when down shifting it grinds every time, 4th to 3rd. Anyone had this problem or know what it could be?
As always thanks for any help! -T |

Those transmissions were also designed to run on Synchromesh, where as these were not. It's like saying, "Well a lot of Borg Warner transmissions in Fords used ATF, so I guess that's just dandy in anything else I deem fit." A lot of older Honda transmissions used straight up 5W-30 motor oil. What works for one doesn't work for all.
