clutch discs usually have a stamp saying witch side is the flywheel side. the raised side usually goes towards the tranny. does it feel like you have a good clutch when you press on the pedal?
-
it might be that the clutch is not releasing at all. clutch linkage all good? did you replace the throw out bearing and might have install wrong? cause that sounds like something is not allowing the pressure plate to work
-
you could get the vehicle off the ground and run the car in gear. get a mechanics stethoscope next to the bearings. hopefully you will hear the bad bearing.
-
does the sound increase from engine rpm? or does the sound increase from faster driving? that could clue you in if its throwout bearing or a transmission bearing.

What the!!! HG's blown TWICE!?!
zacyork replied to Fox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
when the HG was replaced the first time did the head go to the machine shop? also was the block checked to make sure it was flat as well? just curious cause things can warp from overheating. just replacing the gasket doesnt always work. -

those look good for the money. you might wanna check out the flexalite website if you dont mind spending a few extra bucks. they have a lot of sizes and styles to choose from. i have been very happy with this brand. -
ya i guess that is possible for that screw to come off and cause problems. just never seen it happen before. guess im used to wedged on rotors. timing light could also shed light on this.

hahaha you are so right GD. thats why i quit working at a dealership and went on to a smaller shop with just two other mechanics. -
he states that he is getting spark on all cylinders. if that rotor isnt spinning he wouldnt get spark on all cylinders. might be worth doing a compression test

welcome mrtn400. hopefully the dealership doesnt bend you over too far. they have been known to do that sometimes. you are ok with checking memory codes because that means the problem was bad enough to store the code. your better off with memory codes anyway cause sometimes checking current codes wont show you anything.just remember to clear your codes when your done. -
