Would appreciate some help
When moving off in 1st the whole car starts to shudder I have to depress and slip the clutch to get a smooth take off. The shudder is even worse if Im stopped on an incline. Have sometimes a problem to get the car into 1st even when stationary and the same problem with reverse, the gears sometimes grind painfully. Whats the problem and how do I fix it? The car is a 76 2.0 Thanks |

Double-check your clutch adjustment. That is the most likely source of the grinding going into first and reverse.
The shudder could be a number of things. Anything from a burned clutch (or rather, flywheel and/or pressure plate) to bad motor or transmission mounts. Does the gear shift lever move around under heavy braking? If so, your front motor mounts are broken. You can inspect the transmission mounts more easily than the motor mounts, so get under there and take a look for any cracked or separating rubber, or loose bolts. I'm sure there are other possibilities for that, though... Good luck! --DD |

Do you have a lot of oil leaking from the motor? Perhaps the rear main seal?
Could be oil is working its way onto the clutch disc. As it catches and slips, causes a shudder. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I do not know how to adjust the clutch what is the procedure Thanks |
