    Exploded clutch disc?

    Ok, to bring closure to this, we removed the tranny and transfer case. The pressure plate side of the disc was completely gone and shredded all over the place. The Flywheel side was super thin, pressure plate itself look fine, no burn/overheating signs. New Luk clutch kit, and all is well...

    Exploded clutch disc?

    Exploded clutch disc?

    Seeing a bit of clutch material, but no big chunks, more like fiberglass hairs, not enough to say "man the clutch disc exploded" but enought so say hmmmm. Maybe something came off inside and shredded the disc? We're going to pull it this weekend. It has me stumped, never seen anything like...

    Exploded clutch disc?

    My buddy has a 01 6cyl 5spd, his son says he was driving and heard a pop, then the jeep wouldn't move. Had it towed home. You can push in on the clutch and put into any gear, but you release the clutch and nothing happens, no squealing, no burnt clutch smell, nothing. Tried putting the transfer...

    I hear you! If it wasn't for the drinking problem, I wouldn't suspect anything was wrong with mine either (other than lifter noise) My buddy has his TJ in the shop for the same problem, we did a compression test, and a radiator pressure test and found nothing, he's anal about things so he took...

    You're kidding me, right?

    My mom would use whatever was within reach! I know I deserved it. My wife and I disagree about spanking, evidently she wants me to discuss with them what they did wrong. My argument is "They Know!"... I Knew when I did something wrong! My Opinion is the world would be a better place with the old...

    TJ bogs down and fuel pressure drops to almost zero at highway speed

    Also look at your in tank filter and take a peek inside you tank to make sure there is no debris clogging it. But more than likely a bad pump.

    Official Craigslist Thread

    Yes, if you buy a car that has not been registered for a few years and you try to register, you are responsible for all the registration fees AND penalties. So it can add up. Typically if a car hasn't been registered for like 12 years it will fall off the system and you take it in for a vin...
