only grind when shifting to reverse

CyFi6 · 12-16-2007, 07:46 PM

Ive just made a habbit of shifting into first and then into reverse everytime, and make sure youre at a complete stop. If you still have grinds then bleed your clutch line and adjust your engagement height.
When you go to put it in reverse and it doesnt go, its just because the teeth on the gear arent lined up and they wont mesh, they have a cone shape to them from the factory which helps it mesh but the more you grind the more those round off. If it doesnt go in when i push at reverse i just slowwwly let the clutch out as if im ready to drive in reverse and it slips in right as the clutch begins to engage and then youre on your way.
