Slave cylinder Install? Where can I buy a slave and how much will I pay for it? Should I change the slave only or go ahead and do the whole thing? On average, how long will the install take me from start to finish? Will I need any help or special tools? How high will I have to get the car off of the ground? How hard would you rate this project? I'm pretty good mechanically with the engine and other things but I don't know anything about tranny's. I've never taken one apart before. Does anyone know of a webpge or book where I can find step-by-step how-to instructions?
It's getting to the point where my car is getting difficult to drive and I need to do something now.
This is what my tranny is doing:
- starting off in first gear feels like starting off in second gear
- there is alot of play when shifting, like I'm releasing the clutch too quickly
- its not too bad but the gears are definitely harder to get into
- When I go through my gears first to fourth under wide open throttle, the clutch will stick to the floorboard (I can also smell my clutch very strongly.) I have to put my toes underneath the clutch pedal and pull it back up and then pump it a few times to build pressure back up. Even then it doesn't feel tight again until I shift through five gears or so.
TIA for any help.
