JUST started. i know my clutch is close to needing to be replaced, but why would 2nd gear be the only gear hard to shift into? -other sean

I had a hard 2nd gear shift not long ago, but it has cleared up. The seal between my transfer and transmission was shot and the transmission was overfilled with oil. I put in the MAF transfer tube and all's well now.

I know that hard shifting can be a result of not having enough oil in the transmission, not sure about the over filled situation, but in my experience, that's what it was...
