I thought I might have a synchro problem. the gears started to grind and all that good stuff. Then one day the tranny became inpossible to shift. Someone told me that I might have broken a sping on my clutch and it might not be engageing all th way. I am wondering if a clutch with broken springs can cause the tranny to not shift? also can it cause grinds?

 

clutch wont cause grinds but will cause u not being able to shift. Im in maryland to so let me know if ya need some help

 

sounds like a broken clutch spring to me.

are there any weird noises when the clutch is disengaged?

 

no noises dude. I have a tranny from a b16. I guess I'll be swaping that in now. Cost way to much to replace synchros

 

thanks for the offer dude. Looks like I'll be swapping transmission guts this weekend.

 

well, if you're going to switch trannies, i would highly suggest taking a good look at your clutch/pressure plate to make sure they're in good condition. i think that's more likely your problem.

thats not true, it just happened to me a couple of months ago

 

thats good to hear. well not for you but you know what I mean. I would rather replace a clutch and pressure plate than the internals of a tranny and then replace the clutch too. good lookin out dude.
