IM having issues with my clutch / gear box ATM.

Im taking it home home tomorrow night to dump oil and replace with Synth ATF and adj. the clutch to add some height. See if i cant get the box back to how it felt before the swap.

Sourcing an electical gremlin to aswell.. has somehting to do with my push button start ignition as far as im aware... not sure.. il find it.

The issue with re-wiring your car is its almost impossible to guess somthings... unfornatnually, this is an issue which effects a few systems ive payed with, ill find it! hahah

I also have to get a oil filter relocaiton kit, i wanna get it now as im doing an oil change tomorrow along with the trans + filter so i figure i might as well do it then! Might to spark plugs aswell... see how i go.

Guess ill go visit hak if he's at auto tomorrow for some goodies.

And i need to start saving for the group A kit ot go on to! ahhh so many thigns to be done!

catches.
