    Specs on clutch components

    Does anyone know where I can find clearances on clutch components within bell housing? I am just replacing the slave cylinder (it leaks.) I get the transmission down tomorrow (Friday) at school, and want to check all the parts before I put it back up to save further trouble. The entire system...

    Bench bleeding Master Clutch Cylinder

    Sorry, as soon as I finished writing my first post, I noticed that you only wanted to bleed the master cylinder, so I edited my message.

    Bench bleeding Master Clutch Cylinder

    If you just want to bleed the master cylinder (on the car) then get underneath, remove the clutch fluid line from the bell housing. There is a special tool to remove the line, but you can just use your fingernails to press the white ring you see towards the tranny. It should disconnect. Get...

    Battery Cables

    Replacing the positive cable on my '91 Explorer was a breeze. I just cut the terminal end off of the cable, loosened all clamps and connectors, and pulled really hard. It came off, and I routed the cable following the same path, tightened it all up, and it started like a champ. Fortunately, I...

    cold (well cool) start problems

    I sometimes have a similar problem, but when it is cold, its just harder for me to start. If your clock is going dead, that means it has to be electrical. Check your battery cables, if they are bad replace them. This seriously inhibits power going to the starter. Check your battery fluid...

    Clutch and Airbox Mod

    I'm having a hard time with my clutch. I had the entire system replaced about 3 months ago (everything except master clutch cylinder) to stop slipping. When I got it back, it was extremely hard to get into 1st, and would grind going into reverse. I took it back a couple days later, and they...

    Problems and Questions

    The thing is, my slave cylinder is not leaking to my knowledge. I took it to the shop where they fixed it first (idiots) and they said that it was the master cylinder. I had that replaced by someone else, and it worked ok for awhile, then got bad again. I took it back to the shop where the slave...

    Problems and Questions

    Oh yeah, forgot to add that battery almost always goes dead in the desert, and has been replaced twice, never replaced cables, though I have cut them back where they are corroded. Also, it sounds like the A/C compressor squeaks at low rpms and was wondering if maybe that was the belt, or it was...

    Problems and Questions

    I have a '91 Explorer XLT manual. I have a couple of problems. First, I just had the entire clutch system replaced (master cylinder, slave, everything), and it still works like crap. It almost seems like it loses clutch pressure the longer I drive. After awhile, it gets to a point where I can...
