[QUOTE="SeikenFreak, post: 15383605, member: 122263"] Okay, quick run down since I'm hastily typing this up. '03 Mach, I swapped in a used Cobra T-56 earlier this year (I think? I can't even remember) It's been pretty okay for months now. I've taken the car to 4-5 track days now with no issues. Semi-regular daily driving as well. The car sat for two ish weeks after the previous one and now it suddenly won't go into gear when its running. I can't figure out why. It's a new clutch/flywheel/TOB. I just got underneath it and pulled the fork cover to look around and I can't see or feel anything wrong? I tightened up the cable a bunch at the firewall adjuster to see if just giving it more pull would disengage the clutch and nothing. Cable moves freely (Its a relatively new OEM cable I think) My guesses are: Because my driveway is a stupid hill, and that with lack of movement just moved all the fluid back and then now its just dry and won't circulate (I know this is crazy dumb and probably makes no sense). Or something is wrong with the trans? Or some other weird issue that makes no sense. Last time I drove it was an hour + drive down to the track, 60 mins of hard driving, and then an hour + drive back home and no issues. Done this 4-5 times now with no issues. The only issue the trans seemed to have was that it did not like going from 3rd -> 2nd. You'd have to push it towards 1st and then back down to 2nd, or sort of double clutch rev match the bish and it would work sometimes. Not a huge deal. I've been managing to live with it. I'm assuming its a synchro issue or whatever. Trans supposedly had 50k ish miles on it I think. Because my driveway is a hill, I can't get the car into the garage to do all the work myself. Unless I think of some miracle way. So it'd have to get towed to a shop or something. I'd love to figure this out without doing that. Thanks for any sweet knowledge bombs. [/QUOTE]
