HELP!!........ Clutch problem

[si_berry]

Put a new clutch in and put the gearbox back in. Started up the car and she wouldn't select gears, bled out the clutch several times and started selecting 2nd, 3rd and 5th, but non of the other gears.
Has anyone came across this after doing a clutch on the 180..??
Suppose to be in Mondello in the morning, but its not looking good!!

is the box seated properly, as in has the gaurd or spud gotten pinched a little? a mil will make a world of difference, otherwise has the fork that pushs release bearing somehow been twisted a little?

cuntish haveing this bother just before a drift day but its always the way... just when you don`t need the hasstle...

[si_berry]

everything seems grand. Are they pig to bleed.. we kept bleeding it and she started selecting second aswell. Ye the gear box is tight home on all the bolts

[larry kehoe]

no there not notoriously hard to bleed but hey everyone of them has there own little quirks, maybe just a simple little thing like its getting the gears, so either clutch plate off a little pressure plate off a little, fork or fork clip not seated, release bearing knackered, plastic cup on end of gearstick knackered, .. hope you get it sorted dude..

[si_berry]

cheers larry, put a new bearing in aswell, will get an hour or 2 kip and go at it again
