Hello i have a 98 civic ex coupe manual transmission, my car just stopped moving even while it was in gear would just sit there and rev up, so i purchased a Duralast Clutch Set from autozone and installed it following this tutorial, did not replace the flywheel though, after doing this my car's vtec wouldnt engage because i had accidentally broken the coolant temperature sensor so i then replaced that as well and everything was working great [= however after i drove it across town a week or two later it broke down again while i was driving same issue car goes into gear but angine just revs up wont move forward or reverse either, i did however notice when i was being pulled (truck and chain) [car was on for easy steering and a/c =)] my speedometer stayed at 0 the whole time this had not been happening before it broke down this time. i want to know if the vss could cause this or possibly not bleeding the clutch? any opinions would be great as i really rather not do the whole procedure all over again /=

Thank you
I registered because i fallowed this tut to do my clutch/flywheel, plus replace the pass axle/control arm. I am @ the clutch (i have full new clutch kit w/ bearings and new oem flywheel) and the 2 closest auto parts stores are knecks and autozone which neither of them carry 12point sockets!!!! So i ended up getting spline/universal socket sets from both stores... none of the sockets work (hahahahaha) so i have my tran in the garage to clean while i find a store across town that prob will have it like baxters or Stewarts.
BTW, should i be looking for any new gaskets while im @ this point? and am i able to pop open the tranny w/o new gaskets to check on the gears (94' civic d16z6) ? TY!

Do you think this will be difficult on a 93 Del sol si (d16z6) -the vtec version of the motor that was used in the write up.
I mean is the procedure exactly the same?

Air in the clutch line maybe? do you have any oil leaking around your clutch pedal? If so, your master cylinder might have crapped out on you. I'm just throwing out ideas. I'm sure someone knows more than me.

This was done on a D16Y8, and the process is almost identical for a Z6, you won't have any problems if you follow this writeup for the Z6
