My Contemporary has a Mcleod hydraulic throw out and a toploader. I'm not familiar with the workings of either. Is it a toploader thing to have to go to second at a stop to get to first.
If you stop and go to neutral in order to get first I need to get second first . THis sounds like an Abbott & Costello thing. And quite often I need to double clutch to get reverse. Sometimes I have to double clutch to get any gear from a stop. THrottle blipping will get me downshifts. I haven't bled the clutch.. Where should I start with this dilemma? THe car has only 1000 miles on it 750 of which I believe were just kinda puttering around. THe last 250 since I got it have been shall we say a little harder..
