I was pulling out of a drive way and heard a loud popping sound from underneath. I pulled over to see what it was, when I got in car again and shiffted into frist gear the car would not move. I tried all the gears and nothing. The car will turn on adn remain idle but will not move forward or reverse. It is a 1997 Ford Mustang GT w/ manual 5 speed transmission. Help!

Sounds like a clutch linkage to me. A couple hundred dollars, but still a lot less than a tranny.

It defiantly could be a lot of things. Does it feel like you get into gear? If so, I'd say your clutch is gone. But usually that happen slowly. If it doesn't feel like you are getting the car into gear, then it is most likely your linkage or gears themselves. If this is the case, I'd just put in a NEW trany. It will be cheaper then paying someone to rebuild it. Older mustangs have cheap parts. I hope this helps-Matt

Probably one of two things. If this car has a clutch cable, it probably broke or fell off it's mounting. The other thing is a bad universal joint, since this is a rear drive car and not front drive.

well if you can feel the gears popping into gears it means you have a drive problem a few falts could be is (in order of most probable) clutch, flywheel (only if its a DMF Flywheel) or a driveshaft problem (IE c.v. joint)

in comparison to that it will no longer. in case you prefer to pass quicker then you certainly could be in third at 50mph besides. in case you pass previous the rev limiter then you certainly ought to reason some injury yet from this, no.

sounds like your clutch is gone, or you blew the gears out of your trans....or you broke your shift linkage....

You most likely broke the tranny.
