Re: 94 honda clutch
When you have lots of miles or km. on it and when it becomes hard to
shift while the engine is running. It can also no longer be smooth on the uptake.

Re: 94 honda clutch
If it's hard to put in reverse, put it in 1st gear, then try the reverse
again. Generally the shifting is notchy when the transmission is still cold, especially winter cold. A very good indication if the clutch is wearing out or going bad is if it starts slipping. Mileage is not always an indicator... My first Civic I decided to change it on my own at 150,000 miles but when I did, I noticed that the clutch still had a lot of life left.

Re: 94 honda clutch
My '94 Civic is sometimes hard to get in reverse as well and has been
that way all its life. Put it in neutral, let out the clutch for half a second then press the clutch again. Wait 5 seconds or so and then put it in reverse. rynniki wrote: > > my husband and i have a 94 honda civic dx and this morning it was hard to put in reverse. but once the car was warmed up and running for awhile it went into gear fine.what could be causing this? also how do you know if your clutch is going up? |
