Okay....I see why the seller sold the car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
I've got the clutch cable figured out but when I went to attach the cable to the clutch lever at the transmission the lever arm just flops around. There is no tension on it to release the clutch disc. I assume this means I'll be pulling the engine or transmission? |

clutch fork not on throw out bearin or no throw out bearing.
pull tranny' best to have 2 people, top starter bolt has nut on top of engine that needs to be held with wrench. the rest get done from bottom. don't take nuts of long bolts on tranny mount. undo 4 short bolts/nuts at body side/top on tranny mounts [easier to install that way]. shifter rod gets dissconected by removing set scew[cone screw] at side of tranny under plastic cover. the half shafts are not allen head [they are tripple star i think could be wrong] and easly strip out using allen head. |

I think I'm going to pull the transmission tomorrow if it's not too cold (can't wait to start building my garage). It looks like there aren't that many bolts. The question I have is, does the engine have to be supported? I'm not sure what to expect when I pull the tranny. A couple of you have mentioned supporting the engine. Does it need to be supported before I seperate the engine from the transmission? |
