help me please my clutch is propably going to take a dump

tims3.8stang · November 27th, 2006, 01:28 PM

ok heres the situation ever since i got my stang the clutch has been ticking when in neutral and i know its no the t/o bearing my dad told me there is probably a weight loose on the pressure plkate which means once the clutch takes a dump and the weight falls off i need a new clutch im not lookin foward to buying a new clutch any time soon and wasnt really planning on it either so i have two questions #1 could there be a loose weight on the pressure plate and my 2nd question is when i do get a new clutch i want something stronger than what i already have does anyone know of any decent stage 2 clutches for the 3.8 motor and trans

american muscle has the stage 1 & 2 SPEC clutches for the 3.8L. Pretty reasonable price and its free shipping.

if it was a loose weight on the pressure plate, it would also tick in gear at low speeds..... but, I am not the manual tranny wiz...

tims3.8stang · November 27th, 2006, 03:18 PM
