Start up, scraping sound from the bellhousing area. Push in clutch, it goes away. I can drive it and shift, etc.
Pulled the tranny today and there is scrapes on the starter and spacer plate, maybe the noise? However if thats it, how come it goes away with the clutch depressed?
From searching it sounds like it might be the input bearing from the tranny, but it also seems to me that if someone shoved the tranny in wrong last time it could have messed up the pilot bearing and also account for the spacer plate being bent into the flywheel. I don't want to reconnect all the BS until I try to figure this out first. What would go away with the clutch pedal pushed in?
If it is the input bearing do you have to open the tranny to get to it.
Thanks a bunch
