Default 98 gsr wont go into any gear!!

after replacing master cylinder slave cylinder clutch flywheel throw out bearing my car will not go into gear It worked for about a week and something didn't feel right so I thought to rebleed and adjust clutch pedal but after rebleeding the ******* clutch or transmission is not operating properlyit will not go into any gear when car is running, when I release the clutch pedal there's a grinding noise.. I can get it into gear with the car off but when you start the car it wants to drive forward.. it's been bled about 100,000 times. The day I decided to bleed to adjust the panel my buddy took the slave cylinder off for some reason I don't know if that has anything to do with it but something isnt right obviously...HELP!!

You got a pesky air pocket in there. I like to have someone rapidly pump the clutch with the reservoir cover open while I squeeze the rubber reservoir hose around to try to shake it loose. Usually you'll see the air bubble(s) rise up through the top of the reservoir.

When bleeding you must make sure to always have atleast half full fluid in the reservoir.

Are you sure you put the clutch disk in the right way?

Check and make sure none of your lines have any linkage or holes. Also, make sure the fork for your throwout bearing is not bent.

The clutch would be fine bc when the fork is bent your not hurting the clutch assembly

If something was wrong with the clutch or fork the car never woulda ran correctly after the original installation.

If the car was atleast shifting and it didn't anymore after you tried bleeding it, what would that tell you ?

Go ahead and pull the tranny though to fix that fork.

Did you ever figure out what the problem was ? I'm having the exact same problem with mine and can't seem to figure it out.
