[gibson36]

okay here is the list thus far ..... on my 82 5 speed

#1
Car want's to not give me gears unless I pump the he!! out of the clutch
I have bleed clutch and checked for leaks nothing that I can see .... I'm guessing master and slave are the next thing to replace so that's next weekends job.

#2
No 5th gear ? ? I can't seem to find 5th to save my life it acts like it's not there at all ?? I was told to re a just the shifter so I will do that next week as well...

#3
I have a ton of warning lights on (pad indicator and a big red ! on ??) Brakes feel fine no noise .... also It's not showing oil or amp on dash .. ( bad connection i think )

#4
no blower motor coming on ? ? have not had tried to mess with this yet ... if i change the settings I can hear things like the blend door moving stuff like that just no blower ..

#5
Headlights seem to switch from high to low by them self ... (if on high only )

#6
the rear hatch has a bad habbit of coming open if I hit a large bump ....

#7
ahhhhhhhh I can't think .....oh yea the stupid people that painted the car painted the sunroof shut ? ? ?

#8
I need All new seats they have cracks and that will drive me nuts ......lol

Thats what all I found today ... It seems like alot but for 1k bucks it is what it is
And it runs and drives great ( when you get the gear )

Thanks for all the help so far ....

get a work shop manual and read it before working on your car,
there are many tests that can be done and are covered in the WSM .
Once your up to speed then you will move quickly through the repair process

1) I would do a visual inspection of the slave movement before ordering parts.
2) Shift linkage has a plastic cup that breaks forward of the shifter on the torque tube, and may need replacing, rubber bits in the rear linkage by the tranny.
3) Clean all the grounds, carefully clean pod contacts.
4) Check all speed ranges, resistor packs often need replacing to make middle speeds work.
5) Relays often a good place to start.
6) Hatch receiver has a insert that goes bad, Roger and others may have a replacement that works by now, otherwise needs a new receiver.
7) At least it doesn't leak. I'd worry more about the accident that led to the repaint.
8) Paul Champagne will fix you up, Paul Champagne Porsche Pascha Seats

OMG! That's hilarious. Be careful on driving that car so much since you don't even have a good oil pressure reading on that car. Get your electrical gremlins sorted first. Like DanglerB said, grounds will need cleaning as well as corroded contacts on all your fuses and relays.

Try vacuum or power bleeding the slave cylinder and draw a pint or so of fluid through the system. (with someone topping the reservoir off if using a vacuum pump) Doing this at a good constant rate will properly pull (or push) any air out of the system if it is "bouncing around" when manually bleeding.
