Ok.  So I initialized the clutch.  First two times I screwed in the bolt, nothing.  Third time, it made a little click.  So I get in the car and start it.  I can now shift 1-5 VERY easy, whereas before it was really really notchy.  Maybe it's just that way because its on jackstands, but I don't know yet.  Main issue:  I still cannot get into reverse.  I tried EVERYTHING I can think of.


Tried 1st to R.  3rd to R. 4th to R.  Nada.  I know there's a lockout of some sorts from 5-R so I didn't try that.


So I put the car in neutral, and get out.  Lo and behold, the tires are still spinning, albeit very slowly.  I hit the brakes to stop them from spinning.  As soon as I let go, they start spinning again very slowly.  So I know the clutch is not disengaging all the way.  But while in NEUTRAL?!  Am I missing something?  I'm going to go out and mess with it some more, to verify it wasn't just a fluke that time.


HELP!      What should I do?  I'm guessing that's why reverse still won't work since the clutch isn't releasing all the way.  I read that there is no adjustment for the clutch.  From what they said, it was replaced with an OEM clutch.


Again, thanks in advance for any help!

edit:  forgot to mention.  Even with the car off, I cannot get into reverse.  I hope this isn't a synchro problem.  :-/
