Subject: Re: coolant loss
Still sounds like a head gasket , even though you don`t smell it . It maybe
leaking under ''extreme'' conditions. The oily film is more than likely the
result of the bad gasket. Get some one to drive behind you to see if you
have water vapors coming out your exhaust.
Hope it`s not, but think it is,
Rick

My SIIa--'69 88"--is having shifting problems. Getting into first (or second) gear from neutral, 3rd, or 4th has become a problem, expecially once I've driven the thing for five or ten minutes. When I depress the clutch and move the shifter to first or second I get the ol' grinding noise. Is this a clutch plate that is going? Perhaps heating up and not working the right way? Any clues?

As there is no synchro on reverse, the back gear gives some indication of clutch performance - if it changes smoothly into reverse, it could be OK, but if it makes a grating noise, then a worn clutch which is not disengaging fully could be the underlying cause of the problem.

Generally the same as a late SI transmission other than the bell housing. Some parts are expensive but available, particularly from SI specialists in Britain. BTW, does it have a dipstick?

Probably the clutch is hanging up and not releasing completely when you shift. 1st and 2nd in a pre-SIII are non-synchomesh, so they will crash when they try to mesh unless the clutch releases completely. 3rd and 4th are synchromesh, so the the syncronizers will get the gears turning at the same speed before they mesh. Try this test: while stopped in neutral with the engine running depress the clutch and slowly try shifting into 1st, 2nd or reverse. If you feel gear teeth grating then the clutch is not releasing. Possible causes are a problem in the clutch hydraulics, wear in the linkage, or a bad pressure plate.
