Hey, man... sorry that I can't provide any help, here... but I was just going to relay my information, too.. you can let me know how much this applies to you.
My car: 98.5 SVT, 44k
My Symptoms:
On occasion: I am in neutral (for instance, when I first get ready to pull out of the drive...) I clutch in, and shift to first. It feels as if I am in first, according to the shifter, but when I release the clutch, I grind, and have to "re-shift".
Shifting hard from 1-2, hardly EVER goes in gear, if I go fast... I used to think that it had something to do with being high-revved, but I notice now that even if I high-rev, I can shift slow, and it slides in place.
Same problem sometimes, from 2-3.
Just seems that the gears aren't engaging "completely" or something.. Feels completely solid, but just grinds on release of the clutch.
Perhaps it is the clutch, needing to be bled, is all I have been told, though the clutch feels REALLY solid.
Let me know how close those symptoms are to you, (with the difference of the gear numbers, I know...)
HTH..
Ray
