Hello,

I purchased an 1984 Plymouth Horizon with the 1.6 liter engine and I believe that the transmission has issues. Only second gear works and the person I got it from did not know how to drive a manual transmission (gear grinding).

I have not pulled the transmission out and looked at it, though to be honest I would have to get a repair manual (first time).

I got this car to save money on gas due to finances, so I was wondering if anyone knew these transmissions and their failure points, though I was told I cannot get parts, or a different model transmission that would bold in with the same gear ratio.

Thank you for your time and help.
