Not Ranked
clutch and engine trouble
Hey Gang,
it is me again. I thought I was going to be able to fire 4788 up last week end. Unfortunately the starter motor could not budge the motor. It turned manually with out a problem on the stand and I seem to remember no problem the last time I turned it in the car with the motor and tranny hooked up. I have tried a breaker bar and rocking it back and forth with a breaker bar with absolutely no luck.
I also have just discovereed that the hydraulic throw out / slave cylinder is not working. I get fluid out of the resevoir but not out of the master cylinder. I am in the process of trying to pull the master so I can check and see if I am getting fluid through the line from the resevoir to the master.
Any or all insight / advice / help will be appreciated.
Thanks, John(;-)
P.S. Is it my imaginagtion or do posts get deleted. I don't know about any one elses, but my threads on this forum are gone or not in the forum in their proper chronological place....
