Here's where I'm at right now. I split the case, no problems. I cleaned the gasketed mating surfaces and the Honda Bond surfaces. Nothing was removed from the shifting linkage or the gears. I'm doing this because I yanked out the seal at the output shaft thinking it was a regular seal.
I am trial fitting the lower case to the upper case. Shift forks line up to their grooves and the cases close together no problem with some slight taps that I suspect are caused by the dowel/locating pins being slightly tight or out of round. After the cases are settled together I cannot shift through the gears, not even one gear. I should be able to shift through the gears at this point right?
I do not suspect any bad parts here. Something is not lined up right in the shift linkage or the gears when I put the cases together.
I have Clymer and Honda manuals, not helping. I have searched for a week and am not able to find the missing info that I need.
