Default Help me!

Hey guys, Wanted to see what you think could be wrong with the car. When the car is on it doesn't want to go in gear. N if it does it takes a lot of force. When it's off it goes in like butter. Do you think I blew a line, salve cylinder or master cyl n a gear? Bc it doesn't want to go into 1st n reverse

RacerXI probably refers MC to master cylinder.

Just adjust the clutch pedal and youll be fine! Should be quite a few articles around. Its as simple as turning a nut

Ok, that's what I thought after I asked lol. But yeah. There's not lecks. Still the same fluid level. But smells like fluid. And when I try to put it in to first or revse it's like it hits a wall n won't go in. But jerks a little but is not in. Same with reverse. No lecks but smells like it. I was thinking slave cylinder bc it only gives me this problem when it's on. When it's off everything goes in like butter.
Not as well: I just put a new clutch n flywheel in it 600 miles ago. I was think throw out bearing? I put a competition set up in there n heard the throw outs go fast.


How this all happened by the way. I've had the car since April. Beautiful black hard top s2k with only 87k. I've put a new clutch in bc I like the feel of the comp stage 2 clutches.

Well, today the break in period was over. So since I've had the car I never really knew what it had. Bc I never beat on my cars. Sooooooooooooooo what do I do. A stand still burn out

If it doesnt go into gear when the car is started that means the clutch is not fully dis-engaging for some reason or another.

You either need to bleed the system, adjust the free play in the clutch pedal or there is an internal leak in your master cylinder that is allowing fluid to go past the push rod.

There are do it your self articles on all these things on this site.

Also about the burn out, only thing that would hurt is your tires and rear differential as long as you didnt slip the clutch.

Draging clutch disc, 100%.

Causes:

rusted spline
broken disc
low/dirty clutch fluid
improper clutch rod adjustment (unlikely)

If the clutch pedal feels normal, not spongy, you can bet your problem is one if the first two.
