Can't get car in gear while eng running
A friend told me he can't get his car in gear while the eng is running. When the eng is off it goes in with no probs. I haven't seen the car just going by what he said. What do you guys think? I'm having him tow it to my house to figure it out but wanted some ideas.. Thanks

If the clutch disc were worn out, it wouldnt engage right. In this case, the clutch isnt disengaging to let him get into gear. Could be hydraulic, or release fork popped off pivot ball, or pressure plate broke, something like that. But yeah, check to make sure the piston extends out of the slave enough to push the fork back.

dude just had the exact same prob. do this pop the hood and go to the slave cylender look for a tube connected to the back of the engine bay thats connected to it with a foam spacer on the tube. now look for holes. if you do or do not see any still try this. pump the clutch by hand 20 times w/ engine running and try to engage. if it does then that tube or one that connects to it has a hole in it, find it replace it and car is good.
