morning gents. Quick question, about to buy a ep3 tranny tomorrow but the guy says it won't go into 4th gear. Before i do some google searching, anyone know what can cause that? Im not very savvy when it comes to transmissions

Won't go into second with the motor off? Sounds like a shift fork over a synchro, but I would think that same shift fork would prevent it from going into 3rd as well.

That sounds like it could be it. So if i open the casing and look at the synchro would it be chewed up or...
[MENTION=56]PetefromtheStreets[/MENTION] i may or may not send you the main and counter shafts for your help

I think the problem will be obvious once you open the trans. You'll see either a broken fork, or the synchro's teeth will be fucked up or the gear's engagement teeth may be sheered off or no longer have a nice cut to them.

The forks arent too bad to replace right? If its the synchros then i would need someone to do that for me, but are the forks easy to replace?

The fork is not very hard to replace and neither are the synchros and all the bearings. For the synchros and bearings you just need a press. There is a really nice write up on 8th civic detailing the transmission tear down.
