Default a couple of questions for the honda masters

1. clutch- my clutch squeaks and kidna sticks half way down, it still works fine, but its getting realllllly annoying. what could this be and how can i fix that.

2. seafoam- im gonna do it, but want to know if i should change my oil afterwards (say 20 miles or so) or should i run in 3k miles and then change the oil. (ive heard of people doing both)

3. Tune Up- what do shops normally do in a tune up, if its not too much i want do it myself (already have spark plugs and filled fluids so i know about those)

4. crazy vibration- when i turn i feel a bump in the wheel, when i straighten out its vibrating like hell, cvs? (200k miles on all parts except my engine)

1. Try to bleed it.
2. Go for a nice 5 mile drive then change (thats what i do)
3. Do it yourself.
4. did you get new tires rescently? If so go back and ask for a better balance. If not try for an alignment.

1. bleed the system, check for master cylinder leaks, replace MS if leaks present, lube clutch fork

2. go for a leasurly drive then change it.

3. DIY, honda tune ups are really easy. (plugs, plug wires, dist cap, rotor, reset ECU)

4. clicking when turning at slow speeds? replace CV joint.
vibrations at certain speeds on highway balance tires.
also check for a flat spot, bubble or foreign object on the tire

**edit** with a tune up you should also set the valve lash every 15k. If the timing belt and water pump have not been replaced it needs to be. (should be every 90k)
