so i put a clutch in my car last week and been driving if for a while and today we decided to seafoam it so were goinig along and went to shift to 3rd and it wouldent go in .....so it went into 4th them we slowed down and got it into 3rd and then we have to stop for a stop sign...so we go to take off again and when releasing the clutch it made kinda a scraping/grinding noise pretty bad but still grabbed and took off fine so we eased it home in 2nd, could my PP have warped or something from not breaking it in enough? any one have an idea?

 

Whoa, have you been drinking tons of Starbucks,lol. Your sentence just keeps going and going,lol. Just messing with you.

I sure hope when you refer to the seafoam that it was put in the engine?
As far as your grinding noise, when it grinds and won't go into a particular gear and you depressed the clutch long enough without "Speed shifting". Then I would deduct that 3rd gear synchro is going out. But then you state that you stopped, then went to accelerate and thats when you heard a strange noise.
Did the noise increase as vehicle speed increased or was it just on take off, then went away?

 

when i take off it goes away

 

bearing?

 

How does the clutch feel? Normal? Or does it go too far toward the floor before it disengages?
