OK folks im in trouble not too sure how much trouble yet but i just know it aint going to be cheap :wack:

 

ok first things first no clutch gave a loan of the car came back a week later went out to find the clutch fluid very low so i topped it up and............ no clutch so i left it for a few days with the intention of sorting it out when i had the time.

 

came back started her up went straight to 2500 revs and slowly came back down then cut out :headvswal :headvswal

 

tried it again and same thing i tried to touch the trottle and it showed boost but the engine just died every time

 

and before anyone says did i check the engine oil i did and that was fine....

 

the last thing i noticed was a small wisp of smoke comeing up from the drivers side at the back of the engine at this i just switched it off made sure nothing was on fire waited until everything was cold and then shut the bonnet havent ben near it since.

what is wrong with it?????

 

and can anyone please please help :bow:

 

by the way its a jap spec swb tt manuel

 

thanks for reading and the help in advance. :duffer:

why wold you lend out your car???? you sholdent ever do that never ever unless its a heap

Hi...lowfluid and no clutch suggests a leak .. maybe from the slave cylinder located on the right hand side of gearbox. Which could explain wisp of smoke as its possibly squirting clutch fluid onto the exhaust and burning it off ? As for the high revs ???

Good luck in fixing it .....

sounds daft but is there any fuel in it? dunno about the clutch. elmo's slave cylinder thingy idea sounds about right to me. if there's fuel in it what about a manifold leak? who did you lend it to anyway? just get a Z mechanic to sort it and send them the bill. lol

(the rather long bill with lots of big numbers on it, most likely).
