Battery installation I'm having trouble installing a new battery in a 1990 toyota 4 runner V6. It seems as if the battery itself is too big and the cables are not long enough to reach the top of the battery to the terminals. Is it possible that I have the wrong size battery or am I just not trying to connect the cables right?

New battery should be fairly close physically to the original. Terminals must match, especially if cables don't reach!!! Bring it back and get the right one. If you cannot for some reason, you can get longer cables and remove the lip on the battery tray in most cases to make it fit. But, do you really want to do that???

New clutch it's already install but still shift noising

Make sure there is enough transmission oil in the gearbox, without oil the synchro's cannot work so gearchanges will be slow and cumbersome. If filling the gearbox oil dosent help maybe you have gearbox damage - have the gearbox checked out.
