More issues

After sorting out the engine cutting out problems I have no got another problem. I struggle sometimes to get it into first and second gear, when it seems to go into gear there is no power , seriously considering sending my little baby to car heaven

Buy one of the above tools and reset the gear linkage alignment.

Or if its never been done, change all the bushes in the rod change.

tbh I wouldn't have a clue what to do with one

What about other gears including reverse?
Has it just happened?
Has it been slowly getting worse?

I think you just need new linkage at this point.

Hi, all the other gears seem fine , It's only started happening the last couple of days , today was just really bad though.

I think you will need is that kit trog posted and someone to fit it.

If, when it gets into gear, it has no power do you mean you rev the car and the revs go up but the car doesn't move in relation or does the car  not respond to the accelerator pedal? i.e. the engine doesn't rev up?

Thinking you may have a clutch issue or a gear alignment issue plus something else

[gtigirlracer]

The revs go up , had the RAC out and they said poss linkage/gearbox fault, play in gearbox linkage
