My 3rd gear never ever used to grind, until i got my new swap. (same tranny/ different motors). Now tonight my 4th gear just started grinding. So i start to think my clutch isn't engaging all the way. So i push the clutch all the way in, give it gas, my car jumps?? Could this be fixed by bleeding my clutch? Whats wrong with it?

 

Which tranny? Hydro or cable?

 

Hydro, ITR tranny

 

i say bleed it and adjust the set screw under the dash to give it some more push

 

I just bleed the system with Bauley. We took it out for a test drive, still does the same ****** thing. From a stop, i put it in first gear, held the clutch in, and revved the motor up, and the car jumped forward like the wasn't in. WTF please help, before i drive it off a cliff.

 

please help. Bump

 

Does the padal fade gradually or does it just seem like it plain doesn't go in far enough? If it fades, it may have a hydraulic leak... what does the fluid level look like?

 

fluid level is fine. The pedal feels soft, for a stage 3 clutch . My friend said the clutch is bad, but i dunno.

 

bump for my POS

 

The before you go buying a new clutch, check everything else. The slave cylinder might be bad... when the slave cyl went bad on my buddy's accord it did the same thing...

 

Try putting the car in second, push the clutch in and hold and start it up. Keep holding it down to see if the car gradually starts moving. If it does, you must have a leak or a bad piston seal on the slave cylinder. If it doesn't do it gradually, you might somehow have a bent release fork... or bent fingers on the pressure plate somehow...

 

It does it in every gear. But i have to rev it while the clutch is in.

 

Remove the tranny and check the pressure plate.
