Really hoping someone can help me with my monster...
I am building a little tube frame autocross car and I have used the following items:
A TII 2.2 w/new clutch, pressure plate, etc.
A 568 trans. w/Quaife limited slip
The 2.2 came out of a CSX/P-body which I was able to drive around with no transmission/clutch issues.
I don't know what the 568 came from (date on the tag is 9/89) but I had it - so I used it instead of the stock transaxle.
Here are the issues:
I can raise the car, start it and put it in gear. The Left tire rotates. The Right does not. I can shift gears and it rotates faster. I can put it in nuetral and it continues to rotate. I can easily stop it with my hand or foot (I only did this in nuetral and first as it is spinning pretty quick in second and higher). When I release it - it starts spinning again.
I can put the car on the ground, start it, and put it in gear. The car does not move... but on a flat surface it 'feels' like it wants to roll forward but doesn't, regardless of throttle speed.
When the car is not running I can put the car in gear and push it up the driveway AND when I raise the Left side and turn the wheel I hear a (don't laugh) mooing sound (as in cow). The pully on the engine does NOT turn when the car is off, in gear and being pushed up the driveway and I do NOT feel any engine compression. The halfshaft seem to be securely in place.
I only have a little bit of oil in the transaxle. I have not filled it in anticipation of taking the frame away from the engine to have the frame painted.
I'm wondering if I don't have some sort of input shaft issue (but don't know why the wheel is turning at all.....). Before I tear it all apart --- I figured I would check with the experts first. Thoughts? Advice? Experiments to try?
