You might also use a mirror and flashlight to check inside the center tunnel. When the front connection on the clutch tube lets go, the tube can move to the right and interfere with the bottom of the shift lever moving left--so the shift knob can't move right as far as it should.
I know this can be an issue for side-shift cars; I am less certain about tail-shift ones. --DD |
