New car--figuring some things out
I just bought an 1995 T/A T-56 no T-top car. So far I love it just need to get a few little issues here and there fixed and we will be great!
One of the first things I am curious about is a grind in first gear--whenever I shift into first it grinds pretty bad unless i put the shifter into 2nd and then into first before letting the clutch out.
Do I need to bleed the clutch--is it a syncro going bad or what?
I don't know if this is a common problem or if its just one of the qwirks of this particular car.

If the clutch feels good & the peddle lift off the floor before it grabs, then its most likely a syncro problem, make sure it isn't low on fluid.
