Gear knob tap when letting out clutch in 4th

Post by bjk »

So over the last couple days I've noticed this odd tap, jolt in the gear knob, only after going into 4th gear, in time with letting out the clutch... It feels a bit like a spring with a weight on it bouncing against it. No noticeable change to actual driving of car.

No sure if this will be related but I didn't have 4th gear in the old girl for a bit. It would pop out completely once under load. Found out I blew the ball bearings that hold the gear set in the case. The box and set where all replace before you got it though. Just throwing out ideas lol.

Well I hope it ain't that again. :lol: the box has been apart at least, nothing seemed really out of whack. Stays in gear fine. Guess I'll see if it gets worse lol
