Thanks, gearhead98 for getting back to me. Actually, there is NO grinding or anything! I don't even have to engage the clutch to get the stick to move in circles. Clutch in or out, it doesn't make a difference. It's almost as though nothing is there at all! Reverse doesn't work either an there is no noise associated with it! I'm really at a loss, don't know what to think the problem is.
