Thumbs down Still not wanting to go into reverse.
Well, I just replaced a leaking master cylinder. Bled the system. Everything is back to how it was.

Still making a tapping noise in the trans. under hard acceleration in 1st gear, sometimes 2ed if I shift fast and hard into it, and always in 3rd gear.

Still not wanting to stay in reverse.

Any ideas?

That has nothing to do with the clutch. Could be a detent spring or worn gear. Has this transmission been trashed?

Your transmission is trashed, a bad reverse is a sure sign
