hey guys, got a little problem.
Here's the story. The car would not go into gear today. I adjusted the rod on top of the clutch pedal and that worked. This was in the morning. Drove to work and when I got off, it was cold and the car had the same problem (would not go into gear while runing). I put it in first gear and then started the car. Drove it hard for a little bit until and for some reason the cluch went to normal. I got home and a few hours later had the same problem. Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help

same problem, but some how i manage to get it into 1st gear or reverse. Same boat as u. Anyone know?

My guest is either the clutch hydrualics or the clutch master cylinder.

i am going to bleed it tomorow and see if that help. If not then i will buy the master and slave cylinder.

busy week, I will bleed tomorow and let you guys know. I dont think this will work anyway so I orderd a master and slave today. If this works I will change them anyway. I will keep you guys updated.

I had that problem. I had a leak in my hydraulic system: a seal was broken in my master cylinder and all the oil went INTO the car. I had to remove all the carpet to clean it and I just replaced the internal of the master cylinder. Something like 25 $ CAN; cheap and effective. But they don't make the pistons in aluminium anymore, it's made of plastic; quite cheap since me.

Update, replaced the master and slave on the car. Still the same problem. I guess the tranny has to come out dammmmmmmmm.

Off topic sorry!

I've been working my butt off to rebuild my complete clutch hydraulic system and woould hate to reopen it while replacing my N/A tranny with a turbo one. Is there anyway to custom fit the N/A one to my turbo trans bell housing?

elnots

guess not

replaced the slave cylinder and the pedal stays down the rod thad pushes aginst the clutch thing isnt pushing it far enough to dis engauge the clutch this is really starting to suck. I rebuilt the master and slave cyilnder and bleed it now what? (it has a new clutch already)

I'm having a similar problem. Someone suggested to me that it's the clutch fork pivot ball . .They sometimes will break esspecially with upgraded pressure plates.

have you checked the clutch line yet..the small rubber line between the steel line and the slave cylinder?..sometimes it will give out and Bulge..and even though your master and slave are fine ,there is just not enough pressure to activate the clutch..upgrading to a stainless steel braided will make the clutch a whole lot better than original stock ..due to no "give" in the line..
