1980 244 Manual Tranny - Hard to get OUT of Reverse 200 1980

May be too late yet:

- Use first gear to park. Never reverse to park!
- Apply the clutch pedal when shifting ONLY.
- Do NOT maintain a depressed clutch pedal. Bad for clutch works and T/O bearing!
- Splines on input shaft can get gunked up and an old clutch kit may not release well.
- Also apply parking brake. How old are the p-brake shoes? Check cables and consider a rear hub works service. Brake fluid is clear and not dark or black?
- Maybe unrelated, yet how old is trans fluid? Is gear box full of fluid properly?
- adjust clutch cable? How much pedal travel from engaged to floor?

Use synthetic Type F like SuperShift from Amsoil or whatever the Redline site says.


Any noise when driving?
