shifter linkage problem and clutch fluid dissapears!
i have theis wierd problem where my shifter linkage rattles like it wants to free itself from the car and trans. the violent shaking occurs from 4000-redline.
i have metal shifter base bushings, fulle SS clutch line, and metal shifter cable bushings.
i have checked everything and it all seems to be installed properly. another issue possible related is my car grinds gears occasionally. i know this means syncros are getting ready to take a shit but could they cause the linkage to rattle violently?
problem 2
every now and then i check under the hood to make sure everything is ok. i have noticed clutch fluid disapearing. it will be just to the point right before it pulls air. so i add fluid and bleed it. but eventually it will be the same again! i have inspected the SS line and slave but no leaks anywhere. even none at the master. the slave was replaced about 18k ago. could the master release fluid so slowly i don't see it anywhere? i'm confused with this issue.
