I read a bunch of threads about first gear grind, but they are all about a grind on downshift to first. I have a 1973.5 with 122k miles. My problem is only that when I have been sitting at stop light and shift into first, I have to put clutch in, then wait maybe 3 seconds to let it spin down before I can shift into first without a grind. Even if I fully depress the clutch, if I donÂ’t wait a few seconds after depressing clutch it will grind into first. All other shifting is perfect. Not a huge deal, just makes me a little annoying to people when light turns green and I have to wait a little. Does this sound like bad first gear synchro or just loose clutch cable? I am interested in the mechanics of what is going on before I go in adjusting things without understanding if anyone has thoughts. Thanks!
