Default Tranny problem



<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=black size=3>Ok here is the deal. I have a 1995 Ford Mustang 5.0. And whenever the car is off it goes into all the gears jsut fine. However, Whenever I start the car it will not go into any of the gears. Any ideas what it could be? The clutch and PP seems fine. You can push in the clutch pedal and it starts the car.</FONT></P>

I have to agree with whitehawk. Change the clutch, its not disengaging, change the clutch cable quadrant while you are in there. Could be either one really.

if you have to replace the clutch you may as well upgrade to a better one. it is def worth the money.
