reverse has always worked fine, but today, I drove around for like 2 hours, then parked. I them left after about a hour or so, and I couldn't get it into R. I had to take both hands and force the shifter past the lock out, and then into gear, and it stayed perfectly, no problems. Now I have to do that every time I need to put the car in reverse, wtf is the matter? I also noticed once at a light I couldn't keep the car from rolling forward in gear with the clutch in, without the brake on, but if it was in N with the brake off, it wouldn't roll... As if the clutch wasn't fully disengaging...

 

That's what it sounds like to me.

 

This happened to the guy I bought his t56 from for $80. Rich daddy bought him a new one.
I am just replacing the reverse gear and synco in it to see if that fixes it. I would like to know also.

Sounds like two different problem.... having to force the lever to the right past the solenoid may indicate the fuse is blown for the reverse lockout solenoid. I've also had a tough time getting it to actually shift into reverse when the clutch wasn't fully releasing (installed a used Street Twin, left my stock slave in it, rather than using the sleeved slave that came with the Street Twin).

 

I looked for a fuse labled RLO or something, but found nothing. There is 0 volts to the RLO connector btw.

 

On LS1's it's the ENG SEN fuse.

 

that was it, thanks.

 

If it blows again look at your 02 sensor wiring, make sure it's not arcing on the header.

 

I dont belive they are, I just put two brand new 02's in the car. But I'll remember that, thanks.

 

yea popped two more fuses... I hate electrical problems. I think Im gonna replace the 'noid and see if that works.
