Default high pitched whining??

(h23 in a del sol, manny tranny)

if i have it in gear and im just drivning. i hear a high pitched noise it becomes higher when i give it more gas. it isnt VERY loud. but i can hear it with the radio off and stuff. any ideas?

(btw, the clutch feels and grabs fine. tranny feels strong and no grindage)

Clutch fork???

Honda's tend to do that... just grab some SILICONE SPRAY, remove the boot carefully, and spray the god damn thing... be carefull not to spray the pressure plate...

Just the fork where it has contact with "fork bolt" and on top of the fork where the slave cylinder ball goes into...

When you spray it, have someone push your clutch a few times so the silicone gets under the bolt and stay there...

Try not to overspray it... just a few shots should be enough...

Or if you have some high temperature grease, apply grease where I told you... but it is much harder since the hole for the release fork is so tiny, you can't do it with the fingers... and in many cases, fingers are the best tool...

Valvoline silicone spray works fine for me...

I hope I helped...

i just took it for a drive today and it didnt do it. but when it did yesterday, it seemed only in like 4th gear. maybe because it wasnt driven in so long?
