1995 CHEVROLET TRUCK

I have a 1995 chevy cavilier (manual trans. 5 speed) with a 2.3L DOHC engine with 150,000 miles on it. I just replaced the shift assembly, the clutch master cylinder, the clutch disc and pressure plates, the shift cables, the clutch hydralic release bearing, and have completely bled the clutch. I cannot get the car to shift into gear. It starts, but will not let you shift. I am lost on what else to do to fix this problem, I have taken everything off twice and put everything back together and still nothing seems to fix this problem. With the car off you can shift itno all the gears fine but once you start it, nothing! Any Ideas? Please I need help!

It sounds like you need a cluth slave cyl. Try pumping the clutch pedal and see if it will go into gear. Good Luck

Remember we are not standing by the car and have to depend on our minds eye to help you.

Did you bleed the system?

Run the lines and fitting with you hand to insure you don't have a leak causing it to suck air

IT is possible that you have a bad compoment. Loosen the liine from the master cyl and have someone press or pump the pedal to see if you have fluid comming from the master cyl. If not then it is the master cyl. If you do then it is the slave cyl.

Good luck
