Greetings,
Since getting my MGA on the road this past Spring, I've had a problem here
and there with my first gear grinding (seems to be getting worse). I'll pull
up to a stop light and wait until I notice the light in the other direction
turn yellow, then I'll press in the clutch and wait a few seconds before
putting the car into first gear. Sometimes it will go right in with no
problem, but every once in a while, it will grind. I've noticed that it gets
worse, the more things are warmed up. Sometimes pulling the clutch out and
then back in seems to help.
I don't believe it's the hydraulics because everything is new. The engine is
fresh and I believe the clutch is new too. I've never talked to the PO but
since the tranny had been recoupled with the engine since the rebuild, I
figured everything is fresh.
Maybe the clutch is misaligned? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Scott Helms
