Transmission problem
1999 Honda Accord 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

The above are the details for the car.
the gear box seals, clutches have been changed and are new.
the main shaft doesnt seem to move in reverse.
it only moves if we really tighten the main shaft.
the main shaft only moves if we take the reverse out.

the car used to rev up and down even when nobody had their leg on the accelerator. and the car couldnt even go above the 2nd gear.

Hi Niraj,

I have difficulty understanding this part and can you please explain in detail?

the main shaft doesnt seem to move in reverse.
it only moves if we really tighten the main shaft.
the main shaft only moves if we take the reverse out.

When engine surges, it is a problem with the idling system and it can either be due to,
1. Faulty IAC valve or clogged coolant hoses.
2. Improperly adjusted idle speed.
3. vacumn leakage.
