messed it up
oops.. :rolleyes:
i screwed my car up today :) launched real hard, showing my brother the difference in my car and his cobalt... heard a *crunch* sound... thought oh $h1t, but car acted normal until i got to 4th, then rpms went up, car slowed down.. not a good thing... pulled into a driveway... could put it in 1st, no grabby... not a good thing... pushed it back in the road, coasted back to my house... good thing it was down hill.... basically screwed the clutch up.. (i hope that is all) 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, Reverse,... same deal.. can let the clutch completely out... nothing moves... doh! |
sounds like a not so good thing. time for a new aftermarket clutch. havent had any problems with mine after 83,xxx. of course im not turbocharged either.....i just get real bad clucth chatter.
