I can shift gears without pushing clutch in ??
 
I have the dash board pretty much out ,changing my heater core,and I noticed that I can change gears without pushing the clutch .

Did I unplug something or mess something up ? It didnt do this before I started messing with the heater core replacement.

Its a 97GT.

You can do that when the car is off, no worries.

You can even shift while driving w/o using the clutch. Though it isn't something one should do, but I've found out that around 1200 rpm, i can shift from 4th to neutral w/o using the clutch.

I think i was just freaked out. I know about shifting with no clutch while drivin,but You gotta see this mess ,lol.

I was just panicking for a secind,cuz this is such a pain in the ass .:)

uh... never atempted to shift without the clutch, but wouldnt want to.. wouldnt that put some undue stress on alot of shit?

My friend does it a lot w/ his Cavalier. It's OK as long as you don't grind but personally, I never shift w/o the clutch. Except for the one time I was making sure my stick didnt come loose again and poped it into neutral.
