Default Re: Clutch slipping.

Need to go the whole route. Flywheel resurfaced, replace pressure plate, pilot/throw out bearings, clutch disk. That clutch disk is an oldie ! Need new style with shock springs. Need to determine source of all that oil in the housing. May be rear engine seal, front trans bearing housing leak, or oil pumping out the shift rod holes. Might consider the aftermarket kit for blocking the shift rod holes in the clutch housing. When assembling be sure to dial in the flywheel and flywheel housing and shim if necessary. Might also be a good time to change out the trans bearings and counter shaft- pretty simple job. Also check the U Joint - very likely worn since all seems to be original equipment. Finally be sure the clutch fingers are in spec. In pretty deep at this point, might do it all. Good Luck.
