So I just picked up a running 95 240 manual, the guy said it wouldn't go into first but all the other gears work fine so we drained the trans fluid was clean and no flakes but happen to see this chunk sitting by the drain plug and it wasn't magnetic so we assume it was aluminum and may possibly part of the first gear fork ? My buddy has couple of blown manuals at his house I was planning on swapping out the good parts on the s13 trans to my s14 trans but I fear that with me disassembling my current trans something else is gonna break or it won't work correctly after its reassembled, so I was wondering if it would be okay to drive it from 2nd to 5th without having a issue until I can find a new trans to swap it for. I just don't want something to dislodge and there goes the trans. The way it looks it seems like its the back of the fork where the bar slides in so Im thinking the fork can't go anywhere so I should be good, but I want to see what you guys think.
