Gear selection mechanism repair. — Toyota Celica, 2.0 liter, 1995

     Toyota Celica 20 1995

The so-called "helicopter" of the gearbox was partly to blame for the fuzzy gear shifting, especially the first one.
The play on the lever felt quite large.
What kind of clarity can we talk about if the lever can work like a stirrer ?!)

The trouble was in one of the two silent blocks that are in the eyelets of the gearbox cables.
It was simply broken)
They are sold only with levers, although they are perfectly removed from them ...
Having smoked the forums, I came across a simple solution. Instead of silent, a bearing with the desired dimensions is selected. In my cables (E56 box) it is 22X8X7, [outer diameter] X [inner diameter] X [cage width]

The bearing sat in a moderate tightness. Various washers and bushings for the helicopter were also replaced.
The result is super clear gear shifting and an incredibly rigid lever, no backlash at all!
Well, a car with a sporty character, what can I say. So it should be, for her this is the norm :)

The quality of the photos is not great, they were taken with a phone.

yes, I just asked :)
I remember when I was at MOT, there are a lot of cars of other brands, not Ford :)

:)
YES! And before the arrival of the inspector, the station turns into a sterile Ford one!
Not a single car of another brand was even on the territory that day!
Well, the rest of the time, you have to earn money somehow)
