Default Some advice for other newbies.

I just finished my clutch install, thisis my first semi indepth install. I always see questions about how hard it is and thing like that so I thought I would write up a thread for others that are going to attempt certain things but are a bit weary.


Dont ever think you will remember where a bolt goes , you wont. I took everything out and labeled the bolts in baggies.

RESEARCH! make sure you completely understand what you are doing if not go back to the computer or manual, even if it means going back several times or having a friend navigate the mouse because you are to greasy to touch anything.

DO NOT underestimate the right tools! You will sit there for an hour an half withthe wrong tool trying to make it work when you can just run to the parts store and it takes 15min with the right one.

1. Its WARY not WEARY
2. I think you made some good points.
3. Where's the clutch replacement write-up?
4. Other nooberts really should follow your advice.

Putting the bolts in baggies, and labeling the bags helps tremendously! Also, if something is put together in a complex way, and you might have a hard time remembering how it goes back together...a digital camera works great. Just snap a photo, and come back to it later when you are putting it back together. That works especially well for vacuum line routing.

Cheers
