Default Tranny wont go into first...

just got my tranny back in and now it wont go into first from a dead stop. I am able to double clutch down into first gear from second when slowing down, but not able to slid it in, everything else works great...

I recently had it rebuilt with t56rebuilds syncro's and a few new gears as it took a big **** on me a month and a half ago, this is the first time the cars ran since...

has the fluid ever dropped really low in the past? it may be a good idea to bleed it just in case any air is in there.

look at the sticky.

get under the car and open the bleeder. get a buddy to push on the pedal. this will squirt some fluid out. close the bleeder and top the master off with DOT 3 fluid
