Hello I just bought a 94 toyota celica GT model 2.2 liter. The clutch is slipping and needs to be changed. I just bought a chilton manual that is very helpful but I am a little concerned. I have changed clutches before on rear wheel drive but never a front wheel drive car.
-I have searched for over an hour for a good write up on how to do this on a 6th gen. or 94 celica with no luck??? -My main question is this. When disconnecting the trans from the motor, the motor is no longer attached to the body in any way that I am aware of so, -do people usually just pull the whole motor out with the trans.? *Personally I don't like this idea* -If so do they drop it out the bottom or pull it out. I don't have an engine hoist at my garage. -Or how does one go about supporting the motor after the trans is out? *would just some chains do the job wrapped around the motor and connected to the upper braces on each side of the engine bay? -How is this usually done, and how difficult is this job say compared to other cars??? I don't want to pay a ton to have it done when I can do it, unless it wouldn't cost that much...... Thanks guys, I just bought this car and am already losing my hair!!!!!!!!!!!! -Also I was thinking of buying a centerforce stage II clutch I want a firmer pedal than stock and more holding power. *But it has to have a spring loaded puck!* I don't want an all out racing clutch.... -What is the best clutch for the money??? |
