Question about the CLUTCH!!! - Honda Prelude Forum

yeah i posted this topic and have to post it again...i just ordered stage two racing clutch today cuz my car runs like sh*t... there is a place that i have to climb up when i go hang out wit my girls hehe but i can't even go to that school no more becuz my car would move on that hill wit this worn out clutch ...but I noticed that once i had this problem it's getting worn out faster and faster and now i don't even have any grip in first gear...

i need to rev my engine then my car would start moving..
and every gear it's even worse and worse..makes so much noise wit muffler and intake but car would move yo
it feels like my feet is on the clutch and try to gas that RPM moves so fast but car wouldn't move ...

i need a new clutch for sure and u guys think it could be something else too???? any suggestion to save my clutch till i get it shipped? or any other possiblity other than a clutch?

I never had a big ass tune up except changing spark plugs enigne oil and those stuffs...

thanx

Okay, sounds like a clutch, try this:
Pull your e-brake, and set up LIKE you're going to do a burnout, but slowly rev it and slowly let the clutch out.
Did your car die? It's the clutch if it didn't...If the clutch is bad it should've revved up with the clutch almost all the way out and not died. Try this, I hope it helps. Have you tried just starting in 2nd or 3rd for the time being? I have actually gotten my car going in 5th before!
