One Bad Week
Well, I guess I have to whine a little. Yesterday I picked up a detonation problem. My initial conclusion was that I blew a head gasket or intake gasket. I took it to someone who knew what they were talking about and they said that I had chattery valves and they needed adjusting. That's quite a bit better than head work I guess. And today I would push the clutch to the floor and it wouldn't engage and I couldn't get it in gear so I think that my slave cylinder went out so I had to get towed. Does this hypothosis sound correct? Any other ideas are welcomed....One other thought, my clutch hydraulics might need to be bled. That might do the trick.

Re: One Bad Week (tarheelracer)
Just another painful note of news to add. The bad slave cylinder has multiplied into the bank account sucking monster problem of a burnt out clutch also. This puts all of my planned mods off by about 5 months. That sucks
