Money Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Can anyone recommend a transmission shop that specializes in datsun roadsters in the Portland Oregon area? I don't have the skills or the time to do it myself, oh and the wife is yelling at me for taking up space in the garage so I want to spend her shoe money! Quote Link to comment

Any trans garage should be able to help you, they have the tools, training and the ebooks on most cars. I would try the phone book and go through the yellow pages. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 i think thing the syncro is out for 2nd and the clutch slave is leaking. very little travel when the clutch in put in Grinds on the downshift to 2nd right? This is probably because the clutch isn't dis-engaging properly, and this is likely because your slave has been leaking , went dry and some air got sucked into the line. Air is compressible so the peddle travels but the slave doesn't move the full distance. Quote Link to comment
