OK,I JUST changed my gear lube in transaxle,tcase, and rear end, and now when im in first and trying to start moving it wont engage...sometimes. For the most part it engages perfectly fine, but only every once in a while will it not engage, say if i drive for 15 minutes, it wont engage 6-7 out of 150 clutch presses of being in first and starting to move... the only other thing I can give that might help is that, when it doesnt engage.. sometimes i get a very small roll, then I pull the clutch just a little more out and the RPMS wont stay up, and I wont start moving...itll jsut die if i let the clutch all the way out. When it doesnt engage i put in neutral and pump the clutch four or five times and then it works fine.....Anyone have any ideas?
