I dont think you know what your talking about really. There is no way you can really get a chunk out of 3rd gear, into 5th as there is a plate that seperates 5th and reverse from all the other gears. He has a broken shift fork for sure. Take the tranny out and apart and put a new one in and slap it back in.

You are absolutely right! I've never had a tranny apart, or even seen on apart in person or in pictures. But I do remember reading about a guy that had stripped a couple teeth off a gear (3rd I believe) and the teeth were crunching around in there afterwards. My tranny illiterate brain thought that the gear itself broke into a bunch of pieces and they were now just floating around getting things stuck. My bad.
