well, my tranny is now broken on my 89 prelude! why you might ask? well, let me give you the scoop . . .
i'm at the movies, have a while be-4 the movies starts. i meet this guy and he's like, let me hear your flowmaster muffler. so i'm like, sure. we get in the car and i go behind the building. stop, put it in 1st gear. take off normal, than floored it. @ about 5000RPM i threw it into 2nd gear. *GRRRRINNNDD* *POW, BANG, CLUNK, CLUNK, CLUNK* what the!!! sounded like i missed 2nd gear but with all that clanking and clunking, i was like, what's going on. so i put it into 3rd, let off the clutch and give it gas. NOTHING. i stop, put it into 1st, try to take off, NOTHING, engine just revs. the gear shifter is going into gear, but the tranny isn't engaging (sp is way off, been a long night)
so some dude helps me push my car into a parking space and i notice a bunch of oil (tranny fluid) under my car. then i see metal stuff everywhere. i found like a mini gear, about 2 1/2 inches accross, and some metal chunks.
i borrow a flash light and look under my car. my cat is busted all up.
i couldn't see anything on my tranny b/c it was real dark, and i couldn't get under my car real well. but this is what i'm thinking .. . .
my clutch shattared (sp again) and something came flying out the back of my tranny, hit the cat tore that all up.
and some-1 else said it could be my diff. pin? i just dunno
any thing else yall can think of that whent wrong???
and how much does a used tranny go for, like at a junkyard???
thanks guys, i'm gonna hit the sack, get some sleep, and worrie about it in the morning. good night!
ps - hope yall had a better sat. than me
