cash21289 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 heres a quick one for ya its baffled me???? i drive an escort 1800 turbo diesel which i believe comes standard with a mtx box and cable operated clutch, which gives me absolutely no trouble when i first start out, then when the engines completely warm 10-15 minutes i struggle to get 1st gear and reverse although all of the gears are particularly stiffer than usual to engage, anyone got any ideas what it could be???

marty1979 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Where's the bite point on the pedal travel? Have you tried adjusting the pedal? It may be worth draining the old oil and putting some lovely new stuff in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
