I wasn't aware of exactly how the clutch worked internally, I just knew that there was a coil involved. If it's shot, it's shot. It certainly can't be as tough to repair as the transmission was!
That was a real bear of a job, especially since I don't have the use of a vehicle lift. If you don't mind me asking, approximately how long did it take you to replace your clutch and do you know of any links to articles that might help me?
