Throw out bearing makes a wicked squeal until i push the clutch back in, sometimes after i accelerate hard through the gears it'll stick a bit, it might grind if i DS from a high speed, also the clutch hardley engages, in 1st its nearly completely UP before it catches. I am going to get a new slave, get the mcleod and the z06 clutch hopefully the setup will be better than before.

Well, fluid leaks are a dead giveaway of o-rings or seals going bad. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Push the pedal to the floor and it stays... that's bad.

Lots of squeaking noise in neutral (TO or pilot bearing) - that's bad.

Hard shifting in to gears (not full disengagement of clutch) - that's bad.

Clutch engaging *right* off the floor. That's bad.

There's some symptoms. Whatcha got? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
