Just wanted your opinions.... do your drop S/cut drop gears rattle on tick over, when you depress the clutch it stops, its a new clutch and bearing, fitted, sounds abit like its not quite out of gear whilst idling..

Yes, sounds like a bag of nails on idle. But great when giving it some throttle! My build thread: http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=454802

It depends alot on the idle characteristics of the cam and the type of flywheel in use. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

I may also have this 'problem'. Idle is very chattery, it does when clutch pressed. I thought it was the clutch release, put a new one on qnd its the same. So the consensus is that the drops cause this? They are tranx straight cut drops, covered around 1 k miles, but its alway sounded like this. Run an ultralight pre verto setup with phase 2 cam |

Is it the timing chain rattling or fouling the cover? Edited by minimole23 on 9th May, 2013. On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:

Hi, timing cover modded, so clearence is there. I run a duplex chain, usually tension them but ran without a tensioner this time. It might be that? Have also always had problems with the clutch, changed the lot, cylinders, arms, plate etc etc, its adjusted properly but need to extend the arm a fraction as its still not quite right, pops out of reverse etc |

welshdan about your reverse gear, the gear its self will not just pop out its a straight cut gear that has next to no side load also it slides into place when in gauged or dis engaged so to me your problem is in the selection mechanism not fully or pulling it out rather than the gear jumping out |

Hi, didnt expect this to pop up again. Cheers for the reply. I can live with this at the moment, have all new linkage bushes, roll pins etc so will change the lot over winter. If that doest work il be changing the gear linkage itself. On my last gearbox build the selectors looked ok, but did swap them for an almost new set just incase. It made very little or no difference |
