A lesson from life.
If your clutch needs replacing, replace it. Don't try to milk it out. It will leave you kinda stranded.

plz elaborate on the stranded part
Sooo Mike how do you like my car??? :)
Oh yah for you guys/girls who do drive a stick please listen to Michaels advice because it sucks to have no car. Well I don't have mine because he is useing at the moment which means I'm stranded at home for now. :(
lol this is going to be good :o
lol were taking it from a man who's been there. :P huh mike?
Well, I just got my transmission out tonight and it turns out that one of my springs broke on the inside of the clutch(I forget what its called) This broken spring prevented me from disengaging my clutch. Which made driveing hard, Clutchless shifting, turning the car off to stop at a stop sign and starting it again to go. (hence the kind of stranded part, I could still kind of drive.) Anyways I took pictures of the broken parts and will post them so you all can see what I was talking about.
To answer cassi's question, I was on my way home from school, there was construction, and things were going slow. So understandibly as soon as the left lane opened up again, I down shifted into second and punched it. shifted into third at about 7200 and kept going up to 75 mph. then I let off and tried to go into 5th, no go, So i Managed to rev the engine and get it in without the clutch because their was a semi on one side and pretty much no shoulder on the other. So I pulled over and called my Dad and told I would go to the next exit (Alger no. 240) and park at the shell gas station there. And I made it due to my amazing driveing skills, and my Dad pulled me home from there behind his truck down the old 99. (My car was too low to make it onto a trailer).
And to asnwer Glorias question, I don't like your car much, your radio sucks, your cruise control is weird and people make fun of me for driving a dirty pontiac grand am.
Well... since you don't like my car so much and I just happen to love my car, can I have it back sometime soon? I don't like Mom's van, its a beast.
1. My radio works just fine as long as you keep it on certain stations. Namely the one I keep it on.
2. I don't know about my cruise control cause I don't even know how to use it.
3. I can't help it that the cats walk on my car. If it bothers you so bad you are more than welcome to wash it for me. :)
Just be glad its not raining. Because then you would have to deal with my wind sheild wipers too.
lol, you tell him, Gloria :)
Heh...sounds like quite the experience there. I'm not so sure I'd like to be in that situation...
i really cant think of anyone who would!
Thanks for washing my car Mike. It look very nice.
