Unhappy The C word

I have owned my eclipse for maybe four months. Of those four months, It has not been broken for about two weeks all together. I kept having problems with the retainer clip coming off the throwout bearing. I have skimmed over dozens of crankwalk articles, without really reading them. If I had read them I would have realized all the signs were there. So I dropped my tranny for the third time since buying the car, to put a new retainer clip in. What the hell, I reach over and grab the flywheel and give a good push/pull. Needless to say, chalk up one more victim to crankwalk. Any sympathy is welcome. A 6 bolt motor is also welcome.

I live in AR, about 30 min. away from Texarkana. How close is that to your garage?

Is it a bare block?

This is so true.

This as well has made my day. It is amazing how someone that you don't even know will just give you something like that. Kudos to you mitsu_eclipse95gst!!

I have found that generally all people on this forum are helpful and willing to do what they can to help anyone

WAY TO GO!!!

Well, let me blow your minds some more. Flip said he wouldn't take any money for it, he just wanted to help out a fellow DSM'r. You won't meet many people like that in your entire life. I'll get him back somehow lol.
