Hi there Everyone,
Please help me to stop having the rather major panic attack that I am having at the moment, heres the story
Just finished putting back together my engine/gearbox after install of NEW gearbox, clutch kit timing chain etc.
When started with clutch depressed no noise, and everything sounds sweet, BUT when I let the clutch out I am getting a noise that sounds like the thrust bearing but not too sure - this is a brand new gearbox and the noise is concerning - is it just that everything is "dry" (the gearbox shipped dry) and the oil has not made it's way up to the gearbox yet or is the thrust bearing suspect (is brand new also) I am going to try selecting a gear and see if that is ok but I am freaking, if htis engine has to come out again
PLEASE HELP
UPDATE
Just tried selecting gear and releasing clutch a little the noise is not really there car wants to move but dont want to drive yet. the noise is much more pronounced in neutral with clutch let out. I am pissed it sounds like this thrust bearing new is dodgy I REALLY do not want to pull this engine out again any suggestions????
