Hey
I have been struggling with this for the last couple of weeks. First my car clutch would not disengage fully (might still be the problem) and so I replaced the slave and that seemed to make the car at least driveable.
Basically what is happening now is that my car will shift into gears but it is extremely hard to do and sometimes it will grind. It is really hard to shift when it is cold but once it warms up it does much better but still not what it use to be. Why would that be?!
I was about ready to drop the transmission thinking that my pivot ball and fork were bad but my clutch was not disengaging right of the floor today but it was still impossibly hard to shift. I am seriously about ready to give up on this car. I would just drop the transmission but this is my only car until I get my other one running.
I'm starting to think that either my transmission/clutch is toast or it is really something easy to fix. I'm just frustrated as hell with this. Please some suggestions or comments.
