Default Howl from hell when clutch is pressed.

Just wondering how long screaming TOBs tend to last before failure.

I'm sure it will be fine. They are a snap to replace too, so no worries. I had mine replaced by my Wal Mart tire center. When that happens to most people, they just stop using the clutch. You don't need to press it to shift, or really start off as long as you shut the engine off every time you stop.

aw, too bad it's an 86, that adds a lot of time to a clutch job.

I find it odd that you would choose for an avatar the photo of a narcissistic, delusional, certifiable nut case...

Hey, MrPorsche951... I have some investment banker friends who told me to look up your screen name on rennlist. I am looking for an absolutely perfect 944 turbo to buy in the new york area. Do you still have your flawless one for sale, or is this it with the clutch problems? Would you still be interested in selling it? My budget is around $15k, I think that's fair for a perfect '86.
