I need help diagnosing a problem. Lets say im rolling thru a stop sign and put it in second and give throttle it seems like the clutch slips because it feels like my foot is still on the clutch while gasing when its not. It also happens when i'm on the highway going slow but in fifth gear and i give like 50% throttle and its does it too. Basically what im trying to say is that when im going slow and in a gear that is too high for the slow speed i'm going it chatters and doesnt want to go. However when I punch it from first thru the gears it doesnt seem to slip. What does this sound like I'm not sure because most people say when it slips the rpm will drop a lot when shifting fast. I have a clutch master stage 4, 4 pluck sprung clutch. Please help me.

 

 

someone please help me I dont want to change my clutch if it isnt. Any help would be appreciated.

 

it certainly sounds like a clutch that is gone. One of the easier ways to tell is to actually try a quick shift. The engine rpm should drop down as soon as you let out the clutch... if it doesn't.... and it feels like its slipping, its time for a clutch. From what you have described, I am about 95% sure it is a failed clutch.

That's a good sign right there.

 

Yeah man... how old is the clutch (how many miles?)

 

I had it for a good 3 yrs but the thing is that when I do quick shifts through the gears the rpm's dont drop when i let off the clutch it only happens when i'm going too slow in gear like 5 mph in second or 40mph in 5th and give it a good amount of throttle.

 

How much torque/whp are you making?

 

I only made 180hp/116 torque

Well, you should just go ahead and pluck your 4 puck and install a new disc.

Sorry to say, but I have to agree... I don't think you have much other choice at this point.
