Re: New Clutch, what to get
I like it when life happens like this, I went outside and started it up, put it in reverse and. . . wallah! it works! So I drove it around a bit more to diagnose the overall rough driving and I'm really thinking it's the engine, seems like it may be missing on one or two cylinders, or just be off on the timing all the way around. So looks like the clutch is working pretty well. Thanks for all the help yall.

Re: New Clutch, what to get
Still probably good idea to check freeplay @ pedel

Re: New Clutch, what to get
Checked the free play, I've got about an inch at the pedal.
