ok...so i was goin home yesterday, and i was stopped to turn into my neighborhood, waitin for the traffic to clear, so when it was clear to go, i gave it some gas and was lettin off the clutch, but it didnt like 'catch' and start rolling, all it did was like rev up, but it kinda sounded like it was griding a bit...now i know for a fact that it was in gear, so that cant be the problem, but i just wanted to know what could be wrong?....oh yeah, and its happened like 1 or 2 times before, but i just kinda thought that i was doin something wrong...hope this makes sense, seeing that i know pretty much not a thing about this kind of stuff..

 

Maybe your O2 sensor is bad? They are cheap for the 88-91 civic's

Wtf? O2 has nothig to do with his clutch not grabbing. Try adjusting the **** on the clutch cable just above where it connects to the tranny. Other than that you cant check much without taking the tranny off. How many miles on the clutch?

 

well..im guessin its the original clutch off the car, and the car has 163,000 on it...

 

time for a new clutch!

 

Yup, just sounds like youve worn it down and its starting to slip like a bitch. http://www.clutchcityonline.com good Exedy replacements, cool people.

 

hey thanks man...i figured thats what it was, just was kinda hopin for it to be an easier fix..oh well..
