i cant seem to figure this out....my center diff went out on my last tranny so i replaced it with a used one....when i got it in, with a new slave cylinder, it wouldnt go into first or reverse....took the slave off and manually bled it, put it back on and it went into reverse but still not first...bought a longer slave cylinder rod and it still wont go into first....tried adjusting the linkage and it still wont go into first!...i dont know what else to do....i put pennzoil synchroshift in it (bought the wrong stuff) but i cant see different fluid making that much of a difference.....anybody???

Either you need to adjust your linkage, or your first gear is busted. Does it go into any other forward gear? Reverse is the hardest gear to get into if you're having clutch problems, so I would look in another direction.

Is it a 90 trans? You could also try picking up a set of 91-94 cables, they're more adjustable than 90 cables.

It was fine when it came out of the car other than the zip into first. KOU can vouch for it (who I got it from), along with Jbone who drove it at the autocross. Have you adusted the clutch pedal yet? That can keep the clutch from disengageing also.

I was goint to tell you to check you IC pipes to fix the idol problems. We did the same thing when when chnged the clutch out on my buddys 2G and it ran like crap goign down the road then we realized it wasn't hooked up and now it's fine...
We too have the problem with the cluth pedal. His goes in to first but the pedal adjustment is off... |

i don't know if this will help, but i do know that the same day that jbone drove it for autocross, it had a 'zip' going into first. The way to shift it at the time without getting 'zip' was to come to a complete stop, shift into second, and then into first..
worth a shot.
