I honestly wouldn't know how to keep it in, otherwise.

Got it all back together friday and filled the trans yesterday. Drove 45mi today and so far no puddles under the car. Fingers crossed thats all of them!

Help. During my autox run my clutch pedal went all the way in and didnt come back. I felt and heard some horrible grinding as I use the momentum to get to a safe spot. I have removed the pressure from the clutch slave cylinder but the fork is stuck. I looked into the inspection hole and I see the pressure plate finger-spring-thing touching some part of the casing . whats the evom terminology i should be searching to read up on this issue? I guess should be shopping for a new clutch, and throwout bearing. Should I replace the slave cylinder as well? Thanks

Sounds like you just broke the pressure plate. So you just need a clutch kit.

is the hood latch something that can be adjusted? due to minor misalignment since the accident, it takes a LOT of effort to get it to latch down, and when i unlatch it it pops off with a LOT of force.

That's probably not the latch, it's likely the rubber stops need to be turned in a bit to let the hood sit lower.

The rubber stops partly adjust that, and partly adjust the alignment with the fenders. But the hood latch does have slop in the hole, it can be moved around a bit.

yea u can get about 10mm movement on the latch itself. 3 bolts around the catch pin, back them off and move the catcher to where you want it then do it back up. also wind the rubber stops down.

awesome, thanks guys. Sounds like that's just about how much I need.

remember you want it to line up with the fenders still so its a bit of a balancing act with the rubber stoppers and the latch. it could also possibly be too far forward or back hence why its hanging up. pop the latch in the car and then look up under the hood and see if its catching on the front or back of the catch. you can move the hood forward n back by loosening the hinge bolts and adjusting where it sits

line the hood up with the fenders? but yea i'll take a look at whatever rubber stops there are

Bee-Raddd

if its too high youll have a step down to the fenders. too low and it will sit lower than the fenders and youll have a step up to them.

I tried to get a picture. is this common? i have a Exedy Stage 2. it seem to have wedged itself and couldnt spring back to original position. Also see the grinding on the bellhousing. The weird thing is I only depressed the clutch pedal when there were noises already coming from the engine bay. is there a center shaft that could have disconnected for the clutch to get that far?
Thanks

Just got my Innovate flex fuel sensor in. Will be converting once my new engine is in.

Quick question: is it better to get SAE quick connects or just clamp the fuel line directly to the sensor? IIRC the return line is 1/4" and the sensor is definitely larger so it seems the quick connect would be the better option. Don't see the need to go -6 and change the entire return line unless I absolutely have to.
