For a long time I've had problem changing gears. To switch to reverse I had to stop the engine and 1. gear was very hard.
Some thought the gear-problem was due to lack of movment on the slave-cylinder and the Master was to blame, because if I pump the clutch pedal hard and fast the gear changing got some what smoother. Others believe the damper was to blame.
I started with bypassing the damper, I believe it helped a bit. Second I replaced the master clutch cylinder, which was really painfull job, both mentally and physically. As I had to lay on the floor with my head in under the wheel. Well I probably did something wrong I guess.
After some hours of work I finally was ready to bleed the system. I loosen the nipple-valve on the slave cylinder and attached a bleeding-hose suited for the purpose. I ensured the break-fluid reservoar was full at all times. No matter how long I bleed, air bubbles kept comming in the transperant bleeding hose. I don't know why (?)
My helper was pumping the clutch pedal as I watch the movment on the slave-cylinder. I thought the movement was larger the before. So I was very dissapointed when I start the engine and tried to put it in gear. I heard an awful grinding sound and was unable to put it into gears (?)
Any ideas on what I might have done wrong?
