It has to be from not having any fluid in it,You are talking about when you push the clutch fork in to test the adjustment?
I'm in the middle of putting a 95 S 5 speed into a 98 ES. I have the trans all bolted up, clutch master cylinder installed, the clutch slave cylinder bolted in and clutch line run out. I have not yet connected clutch line to clutch slave cylinder so there is no tension against the fork that moves the throwout bearing. There is absolutely no resistance to movement of the throwout bearing fork (that the clutch slave cylinder rod will push against once the system is filled and bleed). Basically the throwout bearing fork moves very freely. I expected the throwout bearing fork to have very little free play but maybe not? I am hoping it is just because the clutch master and slave cylinder have not yet been filled with fluid and bleed.
Can anyone verify this is the case as I hate to bolt everything up to find out there is something wrong with the clutch.

Yes I am talking about clutch fork where it meets the slave cylinder rod. I am going to add brake fluid to the clutch system and test it out today before continuing to bolt things back together. Got my finger's crossed.

Hooked the clutch line up and pressurized and bleed it. That took care of the slack in the system.
Next question. On the top towards the front of the 5-spd transmission there is an electrical connector that I can't find a plug from the the wiringharness to hook up to it. Any idea what this is? Is there a connector tucked away that I have missed? The only other connector on the 5-spd is one located by the rear trans mount.

This is a picture of the plug on the top front of the 5-spd transmission itself.

That is the speed sensor.
that for the reverse lamps, speed sensor should be more towards the back...that is the same connector on the 8g for the reverse lamps
I also thought the speed sensor was at the back of the trans but what the heck do I know.
So if this the reverse switch what am I suppose to hook up to it? I was thinkijng I need to figure out which one of the plugs from the auto trans wiring harness is the reverse wires. Then I guess I cut the connector from the 5-spd wiring harness and wire that on to the reverse wires.

if its anything like the 8g, it'll be pin 8+9 on the same harness as the starter wires...dont quote me on that tho
just searched (wonderful tool)
red/green and red/blue connect to that switch from the main (big) auto harness for the transmission, doesnt matter how u wire it, its just for continuity when in reverse

It is up to you if you want reverse lights or not.
It is reverse lights. Speed sensor is a 3 prong not a 2 prong. It's worth having those lights and in peanotations write up he says how to make them work

QNZMostWanted,
I have been searching for your post on 5 speed swaps without success. I did go back and reread peanotion's 5 spd swap from the tutorial and at the very end there was an update that covered the reverse lights. Was that yours? If not can you provide me a link to your post? To keep it as clean as possible I am going to cut the original plug from the manual trans wiring harness and wire it in. Thanks for the assist on this.
