anyone located in the fresno, ca area that can help me with my car? i’m not that experienced with 240s, recently the car has stopped going into gear, i’ve replaced the slave and master, deleted the damper box, nothing worked. before i drop the trans and look at the clutch and pressure plate i’d like another set of eyes to maybe see if they can find issue. i’m at a standstill.

This thread really should have been a post on the small question's thread, or at least in the regional section.

That said. Does it atleast go into gear when with the engine off?

Iike there's a blockage/ obstruction?

Have you tried starting it while IN GEAR?

You're not giving much to go off of.

Was driving in the fucked 101 coming back from SF once and heard some noises in the trans. once i got to a stop the car wouldn't go into gear. turned the car off, it would go into gear. ended up putting the car in 1st gear, turned the car on to get it going and made it all the way home 5 or so miles in first gear. the pressure plate fucked itself, a couple of fingers off the plate flew off, it seized the assembly.

Not sure if that's your problem, but if you've bled the system and can see the clutch fork engaging when you push the pedal then it's not the hydraulics.

This is what I was getting too. One of the disk's dampener spring on my clutch broke off while stopped at a light, and would only go in gear w/ the engine off. If I started it while in gear (clutch in), it would make a terrible grind & rattle, but it moved. Drove it off the road that way. Dropped the trans, replaced the clutch.. and all was well again.

Have you tried 2nd? I would do as stated above and verify the slave is working when the clutch pedal is engaged.
