Re: super stiff cluch pedal and won't go in gear

Ok...sooooo.....pulled the transmission off tonight. Was expecting to find some physical damage, but nothing there. No evidence of disc issues, or debris in the housing??

Re: super stiff cluch pedal and won't go in gear

Hey, guess it's a good exuse to take the tranny off for the first time. Sounds like a day in the garage, this time with an excuse for my wife....... :wink: Might not be this weekend now, but next. At any rate, I will take pics and post my findings.

Thanks Jim and everyone for the pointers.

Re: super stiff cluch pedal and won't go in gear

K, thanks, I will try this on the weekend, see if there is any visible signs of damage. If I see nothing, guess I'll bleed the system and see if that does the trick.
