Re: 99 cougar 5 speed hard to shift into gears

hey thanks for the advise. i tried to bleed the slave cylinder right at the top of the tranny where the bleeder valve was, it didnt fix the hard shifting. The clutch resivour was full as well. I didnt have any grinding when going into the gears, it was just hard to get it to go into a gear. I went ahead and pulled the tranny out with the help of my friend and we discovered that the clutch disc was shot and half of it had disenigrated off of the metal plate part itself. we replaced the disc, pressure plate and slave and now it drives like a champ. thanks again for your help.
