    McLeod clutch break-in

    The McLeod installation instructions say the Traction control must be off during the break-in period. They even used the bold lettering. Why is that?

    Tob

    Has anyone had one of the heavy duty TOB's/retainer sleeves go bad? Seems like I'm having that problem again with the upgraded parts, but worse this time. When I depress the clutch and leave it down, it squeals and I can smell burning clutch. It's been about 40k miles since I upgraded the...

    Rough/Surging Idle

    Here is a video of my idle problem. Already cleaned the MAF and IAC. Plugs are relatively new and have been smooth until just recently. No check engine light. Its not so much a rough idle as a surge up and down. Idle - YouTube

    The stall has returned.

    It's been about 6 years since my car last had the stalling issue. Coming to a stop, clutch depressed, it dies, but unpredictably so. I notice sometimes the RPMS drop low then come back to normal. I had all the reflashing/tune stuff done back in 03/04. Can bad spark plugs cause a similar problem?

    Need a new rear differential.

    Are these assemblies still available? The shop says they can't find one and it's gonna cost $2000-$3500 to rebuild it. Sounds like BS to me.

    Transmission Noise

    Lately my transmission is making more noise than usual. It is louder, with a slightly higher pitch, especially in gears 4-6. My car only has about 35k miles. Anyone else notice this?

    General Tire Wear Question

    Are tires worn-out when the wear bars are visible, or when they are flush with the adjacent tread? For street tires, of course.

    Better way to clean a K & N filter?

    Is there any better way, besides spraying on the cleaner and rinsing it? I can never seem to get it clean enough. Still seems pretty dirty after all that. Anybody ever soaked it in a bucket overnight?

    1/4 mile calculators

    Are they accurate at all? Do they assume no tire spin. According to one I should be doing an ET of 11.1 sec
