Re: Help!!!!!!!!!! can't shift
will it go into gear when the car is off?
Fast imports only come on two wheels.

Re: Help!!!!!!!!!! can't shift
ok so it wont go into any gear right but your stuck in one of the gears right.....if this is the case your shifter linkage broke! i had this happen to me when i was headed to newmarket i was in 4th and went to shift into 5th but it wouldnt go the shifter seemed to be free to go in any direction.....so i had to drive from the 401 to the 404 all the way to mt albert in 4th...when i got there i jacked up the car and the shift linkage at the transmision had come apart the bolt fell out....just got a new one and problem solved.......

Re: Help!!!!!!!!!! can't shift
personnally that sounds like the clutch to me. blew one out in a truck it did the same thing. the only reason i could even drive it period was i noticed it right away and smelled it. when i took the clutch appart the s--- looked like cotton candy. did you smell anything? if this is the clutch youll notice that pretty soon... if the car moves... when you shift to another gear the rpms wont drop. hope i helped. cant say thats what it is for sure just by the sound of things thats what i get.
too much s--- to list!
