I have a 79 RX-7 with low mileage and a manual 5 speed. All at once, I am experiencing a problem with finding a gear and with changing gears. I really had to work to put the car in 2nd. And sometimes I cant' find any gear at all. I have had the manual transmission oil recently changed, and I have had no gear change problems before. The clutch is new and has only about a 2000 miles on it. Any ideas on my problem and what steps to take next.

Thanks

Wrong oil or perhaps clutch issues.

Have the clutch hydraulics been replaced? Often, after a clutch change, the new presssure plate stresses the old hydraulics and they soon fail.

check into the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder first. if not you may have a bad input shaft bearing or a faulty throwout bearing. or possibly the t/o bearing wasnt installed properly or the retaining clip has taken a ****.
