I agree with you and the other poster--the most likely source is the clutch. If you did not install the new clutch, take it back and tell the person that installed it that he needs to adjust it. -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

Re: belt squeal

throw out bearing when he replaced the clutch. unless he did and like you said it just needs to be adjusted. |

When you take it back, you can ask him whether or not he fixed the throw out bearing. It's hard to second guess mechanics. I suppose that it is possible that he took a close look at the throw out bearing and determined that it did not need to be fixed or replaced. Mechanics and doctors can make mistakes. It happens on a regular basis. I once read about a doctor that accidently reversed the xray and ended up cutting off the wrong leg. -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

Re: belt squeal
it could be the fork but when my fork squeaks its only when i am pushing the
pedal all the way in (to the floor) and it makes a god aweful sound like a dieing cat. the way i fixed it was to get some white lithium grease (kind in a can with a straw like wd-40) and gently sprayed it on the forks fingers making sure not to get the clutch disk. this can be done by sliding back the fork boot on the front of the engine right behind the radiator. once again i make no guarentees on my suggestions and it may not work for your car. also spraying any type of grease in, near, around your clutch is highly not reccomended.

However, don't you think that they mechanic that messed up the job should be the person that repairs the problem for free? -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.
