FD problems...
I just got my FD re-gassed today and when I drive it whilst the a/c is on, the engine seems to back off and on again at a fast pace ever so often. Say i'm cruising at 2000rpm, the car will set you forward, than back as if it rocking and than when I turn the aircon off, it's fine... normal?
Also, my FD is manual, but struggle to get my gearboc into first whilst is rolling... it can be done, but it needs a push which I don't do... bad synchro? In every manual I have driven, first gear can be accessed whilst rolling...
Thanks guys..
Dennis,

Not sure on your first question, sounds like something is not properly grounded or is running lean under E/L.
All FD manuals are hard to put into 1st except at a dead stop. It's normal.

Dennis,
My solution is to slip the clutch slightly while driving at low, constant, speed in 1st gear to dampen the bucking.
