Five Speed Manual Transmission Installation - Shifting Gears
|
With the Camaro back on the ground we attached the shift handle, slid on the dust boot and screwed down the trim ring. Now it's time to bleed the clutch. We pumped the clutch pedal slowly a few times, making sure the master cylinder rod achieved full extension. It took us almost 40 pumps and we kept an eye on the reservoir level to make sure it didn't run out. Keisler also states that you should leave the reservoir uncapped overnight so that any excess air can escape the system. Lastly, we did some test drives in an empty part of town, following Keisler's testing procedures, and found everything worked smoothly. It should be noted that the reverse gear on TKO units is not synchronized and slight grinding is normal. Putting the trans into a forward gear before shifting into reverse can prevent this. We wouldn't call the installation easy, but it was straightforward and given the complexity, it was much easier than we thought it would be. View Related Article
