Sticky Shifter

Well fellas I jacked the car up and looked at what was going on far as clutch adjustment. I didn't have any free play when I push the clutch in so I thought I have/had the throw out bearing adjusted to tight against the pressure plate. I would pull the pedal all the way frontwards to the front of the car and pull the clutch fork toward the back of the car by hand. It there was any play it was very minimum. So I adjusted it to give more movement and found when Im sitting in the car the clutch pedal will travel at least ¾" before feeling any pressure(Im talking total free play). Then as I push further the PP will start to disengage the clutch. I like the "feel" of the pedal before I touched it. I still get a noise "somewhere" in the tranny area ever so often. Clunk, clunk then it totally goes away.

Also on a rating between 1 and 10 being the best far as shifting when I started this post I would give it a 8. Now with the adjustment I made I give it a 6. It is a PITA to find 1st gear.

Yall hit with some info. Im not a manual trans guy at all. The trans I have had in the past have been autos.

Im fixing to go out in the garage and adjust it somewhat back to where I had it since a) it didn't cure the noise like I had hoped and b) it made the shifting more difficult.
