jjcomanche44 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I recently purchased a 1989 5-speed Comanche. There are two things that concern me. The neutral idle speed stays around 1500 rpms. Is this normal or does something need to be adjusted. Secondly, once in a while after I have applied the break when the comanche is in 3rd gear I can shift out of 3rd but not into any other gear. But if I turn the car off and back on everything works fine. (This has only happened when I was coming to a stop at a light) Am I going to need a new transmission?

BLHTAZ Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Auto or manual trans?? "1989 5 speed Comanche" :oops: oops...I missed that because i am at work and sneaking on here a bit so I read over it too fast ;) Being a manual...I would most likely suspect the clutch slave cylinder or possibly the master.

BLHTAZ Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Most weekends are OK with me, but I do work this Saturday. I am free on Sunday as far as I know. I will be away the weekend of May 16, 17 & 18 at Jeep Beach in Daytona...other than that...let me know. If it is a clutch slave cylinder, you are on borrowed time though as they will not last long when the issues start so be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
