CANT shift gears when car is ON... butt i CAN shift when car is OFF
Hi i have a 97' acura 2.2 CL Pretty much stock just headers and intake and stage 2 race clutch and coil overs =] not much engine power but a lot of turning power.... so anyway I cant shift into any of my gears when my car is ON. However when my car is OFF i can shift into any gear... any idea of what it might be ? I was thinking it was my tranny but....if i put the car in first gear while its off and turn it on while the gear is in i can drive it... but i cant shift into any other gear afterward.. oh and my clutch pedel used to be kidna stiff and now its noticably soft....and its happend a few times where my pedel would stay in and i would have to pull it out with my foot...so yea if you guys can thorw me any ideas of what it might be i would really apreciate it
p.s i was also thinking it might be my slave clyinder you know the one the engages the clutch cause i replaced it one time when it broke..and it leaked a little fluid but now it engages and i can see it move in and out when i push the pedel..
and maybe the thorw out bearing ? posssibly ?
Anyway thanks a lot for helping me out in advance =]

i would start with bleeding the slave cylinder, usually the throwoout bearing will whine before it goes, so if you didnt hear it than its prolly aiit. you should also check the linkage to make sure its adjusted properly.

well i bled the system and checked my slave cylinder and eveything works fine...
my slave clyinder opens up and everything but still nothing =\ and i forgot to mention that if i put the car in gear when car is off and turn the car on while in 1st gear it wont stall out... =\ i think i need a new tranny... anyone agree? or should i just buy a clutch kit.
