I really hope somone can help me, i am so deperate i am about to take it to the dealer

My clutch has always acted funny, and i am saving to get a new one...but after leaving my car for 2 weeks it is now really really really bad.

OK

1. when you press on it is take NO effort to puch until the last inch or so.

2. For the first few minutes, when i take my foot completly off the pedal, like affter a shift, it will stick for several seconds (not at the catch point, it is already engaged but in the freee play area) then you hear a bang as it decides to come up (the pedal)

3. It will not shift at all when first starting the car, the clutch must be pumped a few times, its almost like it is not disengaging

4. When the car is started with the tanny in first, and the clutch in you can almost feel the car wanting to move forward, it doesnt have this feeling when the tans. is in nuetral when starting

5. It takes it extrmly long to engage on starting up, i hae to feather the clutch way to much


I let my freind drive it around my street today, and he says its really weird too. I dont understand it doesnt seem to be slipping yet so i thing the disk os ok for this point, is it the pressure plate? the master or slave cylenders? SOmething worse ?

My dad wont let me drive it, cus he thinsk is going to die, man school is starting soon, and im NOT RIDIN THE BUS!!!

Please help

 

mine did all that funny stuff when it was going out til it finally went out. I purchased a new clutch and did the install myself.. and everythings better... so just have a new clutch installed

 

yeah...really just sounds like it's going out. Not much you can do about that.

 

Yea its going. Get the clutch and if you can a flywheel. Stock or aftermarket,it deosn't matter but get another one to be on the safe side.

 

Sounds like the hydraulics, not the clutch itself. Bleed the clutch because it just might be air in the lines. If that doesn't fix it, look around for leaks & post back. I'm guessing master cylinder...

 

Well i found a really cool clutch place aorund here that says they will look at it for free, the dealer wanted 80 just to look at it :madfawk: :madfawk:

So i have an appt. tommaorw at 8, so we will see what the prob is

 

Mine was just screwing up like that last week. Turns out the pressure line from the Master to the slave cylinder had a leak and I was losing fluid. Honda wanted to make me wait 5 days for the part so I had it custom made at a hose shop. The new one is steel so I wont have to deal with this again. Cost me $230 installed

 

I took it to the shop, they bled the system and it worked fine, they are replacing the master and slave cylenders right now, i needed to get new ones anyways for when i get my new clutch...380 parts and labor

 

it was 460 somthing, so i talked him down from that stupid price

 

91accord...wasnt there noticable fluid leaking out or somthing? I dont think that is happening to mine, cuz the resovor was still full, there was just a but load of air in the system, ground the living hell out of my gears trying to get it there this morning, i was about to call a tow truck...

i hope i didnt hurt anything....
