Default Re: Slamming into first gear

If I remember correctly that oil is a 250 weight. It should be fine.

The question of where the clutch engages is a good one, and, my question too. How far from the floor does the clutch engage/disengage ? It should at about 3-5", or half way between floor and the end of the pedal free-play. The pedal free-play should be about 1.5"

If sitting running with the clutch pedal up and transmission in neutral. When pushing the pedal it takes a couple seconds to ba able to shift into first gear. It also helps to shift into 2nd or 3rd and then right into first.
