How old is your clutch ? Seems odd that it would slip if it's recent. Is your slave adjusted properly so that you're engaging and releasing fully ?
That old MC was beyond done, that's some junk! Car looks good, glad to see you're keeping it.
The boot is attached to the tunnel and the heater distribution vent piece goes over top. Use washers to prevent it from splitting.
lol didnt even think of taking the VC off.. I should be getting the powder coated one any day now, I;ll wait unit thenI'ver never had to remove the head bolt to remove the temp sending unit. Use a low profile 15 mm, make sure you have it nice and flat against the head and it should come off.
It's easier to have the valve cover off too, it makes for easy access.
how is it attached? I was playing with it just now and the only way that made any sense to me was stuffing it inside the tunnel.
washers where ?
Thank you. I took most of it apart, replaced screws with stainless, new insulation, rebuilt the valves. Kept the outside original.Nice double oven!
thank you for checking for meI just checked my tunnel...scratch that - it attaches with four screws to the heater duct. If you don't have screw holes in your duct (that's how mine was attached) then you could just stuff it in the hole.
Then again, they may just float and someone decided to screw mine down.
No screws necessary for the shift boot. The flange gets stuffed into the tunnel. Just make sure to go back under the car and verify that there's no folds in the flange or it will leak hot air into the cabin. If clearance is an issue you may need to drop the trans crossmember down.
Use a crows foot wrench to remove/install the temp sender bulb. It can usually be done without removing the valve cover unless you have an aluminum valve cover.
