When I had the car running and was able to drive it the car, it would not shift into second gear. It had a pushing filling on it when I would try to go into that gear. Also even though I have the clutch all the way in and changing gears like from reverse to first it would make a big grinding noise but only once in a while. So Im thinking I need to tighten my cable to stop the grinding noise. But I have no clue about how to fix second gear. My car is a 1975 2.0 with side shifter. Thanks for those who help.

before you tear the whole thing apart... there should be a big plastic cover over the point where the rod meets the transmision. lift it up and away. there is a round bushing p.89, fig 5.27, #25. make sure this part is in good condition. part # 24 should not rattle around. with a good bushing #24 goes on somewhat hard. does your trans engage in every gear except 2? do a search and look for a "shifter adjustment" thread by redbeard at pelican. you're making progress with your car. don't give up yet!!! look at the money you have saved by asking questions here. 5-6 six hundred for a set of used carbs is not a good deal. before you commit, ask the mechanic if you will need to change the fuel pump. he had better say "yes".
