this is NOT what i *wanted* to hear..
but, thanks for the info..
NOW list experts:
seems i gotta pull the engine to fix the clutch..
i've had this car for 18 months (seven *driving* months, due to salty roads)
and the engine
runs pretty good--i've not done a compression check (but will)...so assuming
i'm "just" gonna
fix up the clutch AND all the stuff that really *ought* to be done, then the
parts list to order is
(it has overdrive, which seems faultless):
clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearings and ??
oh, how do i tell where all that oil is coming from--the entire bottom of the
engine is black and
wet---i can see some comes from the oil pressure gage tap, but there MUST be
more leaking
places..
(ok, i'll order an oil pan gasket...how about a "rear main seal" does she
have/need one--how
do i check??)
sigh!
