A 93 dodge stealth RT non turbo that likes to jump out of 5th gear when you let off the gas then step on it again Any ideas?

Answer 1

If your tranny shifter knob starts bouncing back and forth when you get on and off the gas in 5th gear, you probably have a nut loose on the 5th gear assembly. It's a simple fix, as long as you don't procrastinate. 1) Safely jack up the front of the car.

2) Take off the front passenger tire and splash guard

3) Remove the tranny end cap

4) Replace the lock nut, reassemble, top off tranny fluid. However, if it is already jumping completely out of 5th gear, you may have waited too long, and there may be much more damage - including shavings in your tranny. When you take off the end cap, inspect it to see if there's any damage to the inside.
