I already know i need some clutch adjustment, but what a pain in the ass. Last year i was driving around with no clutch at all. (from york pa to baltimore and back again) now i got the clutch working ... thank god. Its alot easier to drive these cars with a clutch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
now the problem is i got all the gears apon startup, but after about 15min of driving first and reverse are no more. I cant even try to get it in without a terrible sound that says NO WAY MAN. so i start out in second and dont even try reverse. But when the car cools off again their back. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I already talked to evil, he will help me out to rebuid my tranny, but i dont have $$$ for that yet. Any tricks you guys have for me, am i the only one with temporary gearing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

linkage is fine, everything seems tight. It shifts fine with the engine off, and now it is starting to show problems getting into 1st and reverse from a cold start.
Definatly a clutch problem, new symptoms ... car will crunch into first if i go from 4th to first. Car will not idle in gear with clutch pressed to the floor, it will die unless i put it in neutral again. It now does this when i start out in second, i cannot shift into gear untill take off or too much hesitation. i adjusted the clutch cable too far super tight to see if the problem changes and it does not. Car runs great, but the clutch does seem to be worsening in the last 2 days. i can still drop into any gear while moving with no crunching at all. guess its time to inspect inside where the pivot arm goes in.?? |
