5 Speed

I was driving for a couple of hours, then stopped to get gas, then when I went pulled into the pump, i couldn't get it back into any gear. I eventually forced it into third gear, and took off in third, then it started working fine again. Then about another hour down the road it did the same thing at a stop sign. I force it back into third and it works again. It hasn't done that since after 4+ more hours of driving. But now it is harder to shift, like it doesn't want to go into gear, and reverse is practically impossible w/o grindage. Any ideas?
Its a 92 1.9 I read in my haynes it has a hydraulic clutch, and maybe it needs bleeding? I don't know how to handle that though.

Next time it does this try turning off the engine. If it slides in gear then it's probably a cluch problem. If it doesn't then it might be a tranny problem. MAKE SURE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS FULL :2cents:

good tip. on my 1999 the clutch and the brake cyl are one unit. If low means there is a problem somewhere.

Yes, but problem could be with brakes. I believe the line that feeds the clutch master cylinder is not at the bottom of the brake master cylinder. That way, a leaking clutch system could not completely drain the master brake cylinder which would result in loss of brakes. Not that that has anything to do with it :smile:

Its odd because it does it off or on. Sometimes (rarely) it works fine. I still drive it everyday, and it works, you can just feel it hit when I shift. And yes the brake fluid is full

do any of you know how to adjust a clutch.
