that's what i heard but not sure.

Not bad but what about the heat. Asking to fry it. Maybe 88 knows or someone else who checks out other boards but there was a thread out there about moving the ECU to the glove compartment. It has enough of room and I think the cable is long enough etc.... Has anybody here done that? In this case it seems that the glove comp stayed dry, barely but prob OK; and this case is one of the more seviere ones.

I forgot to post here a couple of weeks ago but this is the first time ever that the gas price actually went down 10c-15c/gal here right before the Memorial Day holiday. We also have The 500 and it allways goes up for that. ($1.87/gal) Right now it even lower. I just got some last night for $1.77. election time is nearing...

yup, and that makes the job a real cinch. pop! and they are out. pop! and they are in. It really is that simple...

by your guys' description, and without hearing this for myself, I'll take a guess with exhaust components. Maybe a hairline fracture in the headers, pipe, cat, muff may make a sound like that. my 2 pence

BFH! and make sure to get grease fittings while you're there, for future use.

then you should definately do it just to show'em.

I see an opening! I think you can get it done....

man, that's a nice one!

no worries brah!

Yup, sometimes some bushing (rubber) maybe worn out in the rear end and the veh. will sway when you gun it or slam brakes and it may clunk or whatever. all that stuff is in proximity. Oil change is def in order just to see what it looks like. If you have a lot of metal shavings in the oil, well you know you have trouble. If you have the orange sticker then 80w90 with lsd additive.

Ha, ha, ha.... ...and when the check engine light goes off then the car just fixed itself.

depends on how much oil. when the valve guides go it's pretty darn black dudes. if it's just a bit rich than it may look blue also.

yah,, find out the codes, otherwise it could be too many things. buring oil will give black exhaust as well as very rich mix.

diesel boy, matterhorn, exactly. If you rev and only very slowly (dragging) engage the clutch that's what wears the clutch the most. I normally only use the clutch for 1st gear when accelerating and when coming to stop to dis-engage. otherwise i just slip out of a gear and into the next one letting off on the gas a bit. on downshift you have to rev the motor up, 3k or so, and it slips right in. hardly any wear on the clutch. Sooo, even when going out you can still make the necessary trips.

ya, what kinda noises? any movement in the rear end when you floor it? it does kinda sound like you have lsd to me. maybe time for fluid change? sometimes that may give you some clues...

Simon, picked one up today. fits nice allthough you kind of have to squeez it in there a bit. slevin maybe that the same thing in your case. it does seem that if it's centered on the brake it's closer a bit to the drivers seat though. hmm? did you guys just run the screws through or is there other means of attachment?

might as well.

50k and you need a new clutch? Hmmm, need to learn to not use the clutch; shift like a trucker man.

not for the squimish video!

Thanks Simon, Wow, that looks like a perfect fit. I can't wait to go to Sprawlmart and get me 1 2. -bounce-

Sounds like clutch slippage which means it's going. How many miles? You can do it but alot of stuff has to be removed. Tranny is very heavy too. You may be able to just scoot it a bit and have enough room to do the clutch without complitely dropping the darn thing but not really sure on the Pathy; I have on a couple of Fords. Make sure you put in all new parts while you are in there (clutch plate, throw out bearing, seal...) Also, the clutch fluid res. is right against the fire wall below brake master cylinder. Follow those lines to check to make sure you didn't crimp one if you've been offroading. Check the fluid level, maybe even change it. -study- Good luck and plan on at least a couple of days. It's a bigger job (time consuming) then it may seem, unless you have an impact...

Does anybody have a pic of that Spill Master for manual tranny? Is it this one? http://www.easyautopart.com/Spill_Master_A..._Navy_Blue.html I use my hand break a lot and it seems these cover it and render it useless. I also came across this one http://www.easyautopart.com/Spill_Master_S...ink_Holder.html

Oh, that's terrible.

can't we just get along? - RK
