Give ya £800 fot it r kid, old man would be happy for it to be gone from drive....

On a serious note is it the clutch itself?, or release bearing??

BC gearbox’s do that sometimes if you run in 5th for a long time.
Just pull it harder next time

For two boxes to be doing the same the fault must be either the clutch (dragging/not fully disengaging) or the linkage incorrectly adjusted.

Where is the bite point on the clutch pedal? Can you engage and disengage all other gears ok? Does it crunch when selecting reverse?

I rebuilt my box a couple of weeks ago and found i could not get it into 5th. When rebuilt the box i used a thread sealer on the selector rod detents. A small ammount of thread sealer had run into the detent and locked the plunger into the detent caseing therefore not allowing the plunger to push back to allow 5th gear to be selected.

goes in every gear fine just every now and again gets stuck in 5th

the clutch is new had the engine rebuilt it has dine about 2-3k at most

it does crunch sometimes in reverse but always put it in first before i go into reverse had vauxhals what have always done that
