Operation - "keep it from blowing up"

[dazedandconfused]

Only thing I could think would be a spring broke in the pressure plate.

[RCCUMMINS89]

I've thought of that as well...............

[RCCUMMINS89]

Why in the heck is this in the "good stuff" section.

That RC must be an idiot

[dazedandconfused]

It wouldn't be the first time I've heard of broken pressure plate springs causing weird noises.

[RCCUMMINS89]

Well........................ figured it out.

Broken clutch fork..........................don't ask me how in the hell it acted why it did. But the clutch fork ear was busted. So sh!t was banging, bouncing off everything. Still shifted "normal".

f??????????????????? but whatever, LOL

[BC847]

Good.

[ellis93]

Good.

Ditto

Oh don't get so down on yourself. I'm glad it was something minor. Maybe you'll swap in a real trans,like,,,,,, a A518. Hahaha.

[dazedandconfused]

I had a feeling it was something do do with the clutch. Good deal you figured it out.

[BILTIT]

Now turn that pump back up!!!!

[RCCUMMINS89]

LOL...............already did.


Also, while turning everything back up I figured out why my throttle was randomly hanging.

My return spring in the throttle itself had slipped..............and therefore wasn't returning the last 1/8 sweep or so.

Now I know why my pump would hang, I would pull out the screw a little and it would be fine............a week later or so it would start hanging again.........I was like wth?

Glad to hear you figured it out and got it fixed.

This thread got me super sad until I made it to the end....now that it's not the engine you can keep on keepin on

I feel your pain though, this is what my 95's #5 cyl looked like....

[RCCUMMINS89]

Ouch...............I wouldn't doubt mine is starting to look like that.

It's still going to need an overhaul............... I'm hoping that I can "hit my mark" before hand and then rebuild it to a better driving situation.

When it does happen........I am currently thinking of actually bumping the compression up a little (19 or so to 1), which then accompanied by a larger cam, will help spool a larger turbo and thus in the end keeping wot cylinder pressure within spec but allowing a more responsive engine at low boost situation due to the cam and compression.
