ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Tachometer/Clutch Issues?

    I'm not sure if it's my clutch or not, (it needs replaced) but when I have the clutch in the tac shows the RPMs dropping to zero and the motor sputters. It did it earlier when I was messing around and just barely revving to maybe 1k RPMs and it would drop to nothing and would sputter, and did it yesterday when driving as I slowed down and put the clutch in to keep the motor from dying when braking. Any ideas?

      So just to clarify a bit, the engine stumbles when your clutch is disengaged, correct?

        So without the car in gear and without you pressing in the clutch, what happens?

          Only when it is engaged and I give it any throttle.

              Sounds like your throw-out bearing is done. That is why the car tries to stall out when you press in the clutch. I had the same issue with my old Rx7.

              One driving behavior that can cause a throw-out bearing to go out prematurely is keeping the clutch depressed when at stop lights.

                    Okay, so she stalled on me while I had the clutch in and was slowing down at a stop light. Pushed the CB into a parking lot and messed with a relay dangling down by my foot from below the steering column (I think the car has electrical issues, the ABS light is on and it seems to work. So is the "Brake Lamp" light after using my brakes and they still work fine. Any ideas?
