i just changed gearbox on my brava1.2 80sx xreg, the old one was knocking, the gearbox i got off ebay, i believe is a punto mk 1 or 2, its year says 99. i had to change over the gear selection linkage as mine is a cable, but i am having trouble selecting gears, not smooth, there is play in the gearstick, and am not sure if am getting 5th, am able to select reverse, i have blead the clutch, not sure if it is enough, does it matter how much travel there is as long as it disengages from flywheel? because i was having trouble with the selector, ihave removed the selector off the old gearbox and fitted it, the selction is better but not smooth. i have not driven it yet, just trying to make sure all the gears work with engine off first, have i done soomething wrong, or is there any way to ajust cables to get better selection, ihave filled the gearbox with castrol syntax, imight need some more, i put a litre in book says 1.7l but the shop ran out, would that cause me a lot of trouble if the engine is not running and am just changing gears? please help!
