New Tranny? Acceleration Problems...

Ok, I have a manual 92 GT w/ ~125K on it. I have virtually no acceleration. When I put t into gear, I have to lightly press the gas, otherwise the rpms will jump. If I push the gas to much the rpms spike, but if I let up on the gas, they will gradually drop, and once i find the 'sweet spot' it will start accelerating again. I assume its some type of transmission problem, but Im not sure. Its kinda hard to explain, but hopefully some one knows what i'm talking about :)

I'm having the same problem with mine, time for a new clutch. I hope you know someone that can put one in cause every shop around here is looking for $500 - $600.

I second the motion. Worn out clutch disc. :iagree:

What if the same thing is happening on an automatic? I'm having the exact same problem with mine!

i think that ford needs to bring all there clutches in on a recall. i have a 1994 and i am having the same problem

yeah, they should bring those things in on a recall. you shouldn't have to buy a clutch after only 12 years and 125k...c'mon guys! at 125k you did good. pony up for the clutch. BTW mine was $750 and they installed a squeak that took me a month to find and cure, so quit yer bitchin'.

125 and bitching about a clutch? most ford TRANY's dont last that long

escort0526 zx2srdotnet ya thats true good way to put it lol but i sorda like the steal on steal effect it just gives it its own special feel

I'm havin the same problem with my 97 auto trans. Got 79k on it. The guy at the shop told me I needed a whole new trans. (haven't gotten it yet, its still in the shop).
