When I had the car running and was able to drive it the car, it would not shift into second gear. It had a pushing filling on it when I would try to go into that gear. Also even though I have the clutch all the way in and changing gears like from reverse to first it would make a big grinding noise but only once in a while. So Im thinking I need to tighten my cable to stop the grinding noise. But I have no clue about how to fix second gear. My car is a 1975 2.0 with side shifter. Thanks for those who help.
