94 protege 5th gear went out
I have a 94 Protege LX 5 speed manual with 253,000 miles. For weeks now it has been kicking out of 5th for a while now and has slowly been feeling like it is going in less and less. Today I thought it kicked it out again but when I held it in gear all it would do was grind.
How hard is it to change it out? I don't care about time consuming but is it a hard thing to change? I paid $1000 for this thing and I am not going to put a whole lot of money into this thing (I only use it since my Jeep only gets 9.1 mpg).
If it is a pain what transmissions can go in there in its place? The junk yard has several around the same year but no LXs.
