Finally got the RX7 I acquired rolling around on suspension! Now I have a new problem. This is either damage that occurred from the previous owners wreck (30mph into a ditch), or possible shifter damage when the punks in the impound lot were stealing the stereo system.

Symptoms:
Manual transmission:

If you put it in neutral and let out the clutch it is in reverse. Reverse works great (gets funny looks from everyone else on the road though).

If you put the shifter anywhere else and let out the clutch, no energy is being transferred to the wheels, but there is enough drag inside the trans to kill the engine.

Ideas?

Thanks
Eddie
