I need some help with my daughters S-10. The truck is a 95 with a 4 cyl 5 speed. You can shift it into all the gears but 4th is the only one that the clutch engages in , it will drive forward in 4th if you bring up the rpm's. I was thinking the clutch , any ideas?

On a T-5,only 4th is a direct drive through the mainshaft,in all the other gears, the drive is through the cluster gears.Drive in 4th only must mean the front input shaft gear is history.
If the clutch is broken or worn,it would drive in all gears besides 4th to some degree.
Got gear noise to go with that suspected bad clutch?

I am by no means a tranny man, but I recently talked with a fellow who had a similar problem. A rollpin broke in the shift fork assembly allowing the shifter to move and feel normal but not moving any clusters, or gears! Good luck.

Something happened to the input gear of your countershaft. I'm not sure how Chevy does theirs, but other makers use keyways to assemble the input gear to the countershaft and they can strip and the only gear left will be 4th. I hate to tell you but, I'm afraid the trans has got to come out,

Well I pretty much figured the tranny would have to be removed , I will pull it apart myself and see if I can figure it out soon.
