Experiencing some issues when shifting gears. I’m finding that even with the clutch pedal pressed the entire way to the floor I’m grinding a bit when shifting. I did a bit of research and decided to adjust the tensioner on the back cable assembly.
First I tried tightening the nut thinking this would help the clutch to engage sooner but in fact the issue appeared worse after I tightened it. I then adjusted the nut back to where I started and tried loosening it but that didn’t help either. Anyone care to take a stab at what the issue might be? New cable assembly maybe? Pressure plate? Thanks everyone!! |

There’s also some adjustment possible at the pedal end. Question...is the grinding something new? Did it shift smoothly before?

That’s right I remember seeing that clevis on the front when I was securing the clutch tube. I’m going to loosen the back and tighten the front to get some more thread to work with. I’ve only owned the car for a couple weeks now and yes it’s been grinding since I bought it. If I keep the clutch pressed in for a few seconds and shift gently the grind is minimal but still there of course. It just seems like the clutch arm isn’t making its full move to disengage and allow a proper shift. But hey I’m a newbie here. Thanks!! |
