The T56 in my 1996 Camaro SS has an issue with 5th gear. When I try to shift into 5th and let the clutch out, it doesn't seem to fully engage and pops out. Sometimes if I double clutch it, it will go on in. The rest of the gears - reverse, 1 through 4 and 6th all engage fine. What could be wrong? Bent shift fork? Worn shift fork pads? Bad synchros for 5th? Since 5th/6th gear assemblies are accessible from removing the tail shaft, would replacing the synchros or shift fork pads be an easy job I could do in my driveway?
You said it cotains mineral sprits does that mean I need to wear breathing protection?
THANK YOU
I will try to put some sort of gasket between the carb cleaner can and tool.
I got these to mosty test injectors for flow pattern.
Thanks for the video, and you just sold me on the ratchet. I just bought it on Amazon. I've had the Avid Router for 3 years now and it still works great. Thanks again!
It's been a great time saver!
You can use a little 9v battery. You dont need much power to actuate the injector valve.
, im curious about the white plastic piece i holding the rod for the slave cylinde, it looks like it gets removed for the install but when you removed yours it was still attached.
I'm kinda surprised a manual transmission uses automatic transmission fluid
Nuns 😅😅😅😅😅
Thank you for this video everyone talks about lowering springs but no one talks about shocks, what good brands or what kind of shock you need.
I ran over a oil spray can it popped and now there is red oil paint all on the side of my car. Specs all down the side and on the hubcaps as well. Toyota Corolla hybrid . How can i remove it without damaging the clear coat.
This has been driving me NUTS! I did brake jobs on both of my cars as I have done in the past, everything went smoothly. One car is great, no problems. My Altima has been making this sound when coming to a stop, and it's just gotten worse. No other videos on CZcams talk about how to rectify this issue. I cleaned everything with brake clean, cleaned all the slide pins again and regreased them, I resat the hardware for the brake pads after cleaning rust off the bracket again. And I added a washer that I noticed was missing from the caliper mount. Everything I did fixed my issue. Thank God, I was going nuts! Thank you so much for the pointers!!
Thanks for the video, I appreciate how you show the way the fluid seal slides over the piston. I thought mine was too loose, but it must squeeze up once it’s installed in the caliper to make a better seal.
Did the brakes also stop better after doing this?
Excellent video, applies to v6 5speed trans as well.
My current problem is my battery bolts keep stripping loose when I simply hand tight them.
now i get it where the noise comes from, thanks alot
best best video on rebuilding t56's thanks
Does this method work for overspray on weatherstripping?
You can leave the injector connected to the battery from 5-10 seconds before you're in danger of burning it out.
Aw cmon. Carb cleaner in the eye feels amazing!
I see clearly now. Every one looks like an alien now. Even my wife and kids.
I wish I would have found this video yesterday. I re lubed my pins pretty much the exact same way you did, but I didn’t wipe them down & clean the calipers like you did. (Mind me I’m not a mechanic) Looks like I’ll have to do this entire job again. Thank you so much
Thanks for the great video. I found that putting it in fifth gear kept everything in place while putting on housing. Just my 2 cents
I run e85 will this clean out the injectors will my car sit?
Or just change the Calipers. 🦾
I’m in the middle of converting a T56 from a C5 to stuff behind an LS in a 3rd gen Camaro and this has been a great video, appreciate it!
Great video! Q: is it possible to back flush the injector using the the same adapter in the kit? Is it as simple as plugging it into the adapter in reverse? Does the injector plate (the one with the tiny holes) need to be removed?
I didn't remove anything from the injector, just did them as they came off the car. I did back flush mine for a brief moment as I had trouble getting the filter screens out and this was the only way I could think of to clean them out. I haven't noticed any I'll effects and the injectors still sealed fine when pressurized and not activated. That being said, I don't know all there is to know about injectors and there may be risks I'm not aware of in back flushing but that was my experience trying it.
@@TheBudgetMindedMotorist thanks. So you tried to back flush them but you couldn't because of the filter screen?
@@carlosamorin7989 no, I was able to with the screens in just fine.
Does this work on car windows as well?
Absolutely!
@@TheBudgetMindedMotorist thank you would you know where I can buy the clay bar?
@@giovannibalcazar should be able to find a kit with the bar and spray at most auto parts stores. Walmart sells them too in the automotive section. I also have an Amazon affiliate link to a kit in the video description.
@@TheBudgetMindedMotorist thank you very much!!
Thanks for your video because I just painted my truck earlier today and I have like 3 spots of over spray. I'm going to take you up on your video. Thanks again and have a blessed day.
Umm on t56 you never use the fill plug is it wont put enough fluid in trans, you need to pop the sensor and fill there.
So why did gm put a fill plug there if it's useless
@chadrichards8930 who knows why gm did alot of things... due to the angle the trans sits you can't get the full amount in at the fill. Thought everyone knows this.
@@OGANGLER nope just you. even ls1tech which is all things ls, says to use the fill plug
@@chadrichards8930 okay 🤡
I have this sound when I press the brakes and full lock the wheels. Could it be this causing it?
Is the exact same fluid you used safe in a 2000 corvette t56 6spd by chance im concerned a little since it’s atf but it is dextron 3
Good thing i ordered the Racing line shocks with their lowering springs lol
Can you use a clay bar on your windows to remove overspray as well??
Absolutely! Just follow the same guidelines of making sure the windows are clean before you start like you would with the painted surface so there's minimal risk of any dirt scratching the glass. Everytime I clay bar my paint I do my windows too. 😁👍
Very good video & truthfull commentary at end..thnx
Is there a formula to figure out ,Say for every inch you raise your truck you should extend the panhard bar X, I am installing mine today , I have a BDS 6” SUSPENSION LIFT in the front the rear was raised 4”s installing core 4x4 adjustable lower & upper control and there pan hand bar ,I have them all set to the factory length ,but after watching your video I’m thinking I need to adjust the panhard bar , what do you think 2012 ram 1500 fox suspension upgrade rear coil upgrade 22” wheels 35” tires been lifted going on
Lol next time I'm just buying calipers. But was interesting rebuilding my own for once.
Definitely earned a sub! Best video I’ve ever seen for a t56
Thank you!
... on this unname thing 🤣🤣🤣 that was funny
Having leftover parts just means you put it back together better then the factory🤣🤣
THATS THE NOISE THANK YOU SO MUCH
You are so, so right A+++
Do I need an adjustable pan hard bar if I'm just putting in air shocks on my 1966 Chevy Caprice?
In my case the problem was the lugnuts not being tight.... Simple fix but not good
Sold! Good endorsement. Perfect video, straight and to the point. I’m gonna pick some of this up next time I’m at advance auto, orilleys, autozone
what bearings need to be replaced to resolve the common issue of 4th gear popping out when the transmission goes in and out of being under load? everything I read said this is from a worn bearing in the trans that causes 4th to pop out
Why this isn't a flag nut, or a caged nut, blows my efin mind. Terrible design
All of my mom that b nnnnjjnnjññnñnñnñjnnnnffgbb you. Ki jb okay BB in NC. Happy off next
Enjoyed the two videos. A potential customer recently contacted me about rebuilding his T56. Told him I needed to “research” them a little bit. The research is watching someone else build one to see if I’ve got the proper tooling. 😂
