F22B tranny having problems
Hey Im having problems with my f22b tranny in an h22a accord. first off I have an auto to manual conversion. It has all the mounts for the manual shifter cables. I am missing a c clip and this is also a factor I factor in my issue. Its hard for me to get it in first and second I have to kinda shake it in. Third grinds nearly everytime. Right now I cant get in first and reverse. I have a ACT clutch and lightened flywheel. I have to push my clutch all the way to the firewall for it to engage. I dont get proper hydralic fluid I think so maybe its my clutch master cylinder and lines maybe the fluid seems to be kind of dirty and probably needs to be bleed and have new fluid. Also under my intake on the rear of my engine and tranny I saw where I think they bolted up it looks like one of them has shifted and the bolt is missing. Should I replace the clutch cylinder first for cheap and get the c clip or should I reconsider and buy a new tranny and put my clutch in it and bypass the this tranny and grinded gears.
If it where me i would bleed the clutch,get the c clip and the missing bolt.
To bleed the clutch their is a little bleed screw on the slave cylinder.It will take 2 people one holds down the clutch the other than opens the screw, bleeds the system than closes it.The other than pumps up the clutch(some times you have to pull the clutch back up by hand) than holds again repeat.You want to see no bubbles coming from the bleed screw and have a firm feeling clutch.Some time several pumps are needed to get hydraulic pressure back up.
p.s. only use honda dot3 brake fluid.Also check for leaks.To check the master look under your dash you will see the clutch engagement rod going into the master.If you see fluid build up around that area you master is leaking.Check all your lines for cracks or sharp bends.To check your slave pull back the boot if you see fluid built up you have a bad slave.
If none of this helps you might have a clutch disengagement problem,the clutch is stuck on the main shaft,the clutch pressure plat is malfunctioning,or a spring has poped out of the clutch itself.Or even a bad sincro.Now the million dollor qestion will it shift nice trew all gears engine off ???????????

COOL thanks, man much appreciated. Ya the main clutch cylinder by my clutch pedal is leaking black oil or greese on the black rubber boot. I will do all of that and the bolt and get back with more info. with engine off it shifts ok but it seems like something is off you can feel the gears as you shift and they roll into each other seems rough than finally click in place. Maybe thats from the bolt I am missing.
Ya get the bolt and the c clip.But if it shift ok engine off rule of thumb says your clutch and sicros should be fine.The leaking master could be sucking in air into you clutch system hens the bleeding is needed or the master should be replaced.
So in my opinion replace the master,bleed the system,replace the c clip and missing bolt.If this is no help get back with me and we will go from their.
