Listees, When i drove out of my parking space this morning i found out that stickshift just wouldn't go into any gear. Was able to make a trip but had to do street driving in 2nd gear and engage gear only after stopping motor. Checked clutch pedal and it has ab. 1" of free play travel(at foot pedal). Much more than allowed play at the pushrod of master cylinder. Bentley shows there is adjustment of the pushrod but it is just impossible to get there with wrench much less adjust. Clutch master cylinder is the culprit imo. Installed new oem in March of 1999 What do you think? TIA Leon |
