Im having some retarded trans issues that I can not figure out! When the car is cold shifts fine, but when it warms up after a 15 min drive the shifts start to grind. I know this is a common problem because I've read the forums. My situation is a little different because gears 1,2 and 4 works fine. Gears 3,5 and reverse are murder to shift out of and into. That's especially the case if I drive the car hard. When sitting still in nuetral, if I try to put the car into 1,2,4 with the clutch pedal down, there is no problem. If I do the same thing for gears 3,5 or Reverse the RPMs start trying to drop. When trying to go into reverse grinding is heard. If I keep a constant light pressure on reverse I can hear the gearset slowing down and then it will go in. Is this a normal problem or is there something else going on? I have bleed the clutch, chg the master and slave cylinders. My fork sits in the center position in the bell housing. My adjustment on the master is good. So wht could it be?
