It could just be a clutch adjustment issue. I had a similar thing going on with my new clutch in the break-in process...trans simply refused to go into 3rd, although other gears worked perfectly. Engine off, the linkage slid neatly into each gear. Tightened the cable a bit, and problem solved. Of course, don't tighten excessively or the clutch might not fully engage.

Very funky that it seemed to affect only that gear...
