Your clutch release bearing is dragging on the pressure plate fingers and is probably getting ready to bust through them. The drag is slowing the engine down. (This used to happen from the factory on certain old BMC models that had carbon release bearings.) Time to get a new clutch. And really soon. If the bearing pokes through the fingers, an awful lot of stuff can get torn up. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
