I too have clients that have stick, but haven't got the hang of how to ingauge the clutch. I also have the "Speed Demons," that blow them up too early. I've been contacting the manufacturers, and asking if the clutch assembly on a "Larger Model" fits the customers model? I have to say that I get a lot of good information, and (a bit of curiosity) on "Why I'd want to install this in the first place?" The best example is a Porsche 914-6; was still using the 1.8, or 2.0 litter clutch, BUT the 2.7 911 assembly worked just fine! And the owner was good for about 60,000 miles (driving like an idiot), but never lost it to a slipping clutch. Lastly you told the guy with the Toyoda what to replace minus 1 "all important part" for a car with 60,000 miles; that was we always replace the "rear main seal" because you don't want to have a customer come back with that oil leak from the flywheel.

When I asked my boyfriend what he wanted for Christmas, he said, "Nothing." I immediately ordered a label-maker, because I knew that he would love to label all MY stuff, because he can never find anything in my house. Today, I asked if he had heard the show this week - Fortunately, he missed it. I told him about the topic, and we had a long discussion about cordless power drills, which I told him I had NOT ordered. Apparently, this was a topic about which he had thought a lot about before he bought a drill 2-3 years ago. He had decided that 95% of the time he could use his plug-in drill, and use an extension cord if necessary, or borrow a cordless one from a buddy. Experience had confirmed for him the wisdom of this: new models are coming out all the time; but the main reason for owning multiple drills of the cordless kind is because the batteries don't last. Will update you on his reaction to the label-maker.

It's a new world: hybrid cars are here. Their cruise control prevents acceleration (i.e. going down hill) by kicking in the generator drive. Thus it is a good idea to use cruise control while going down hill with these cars.
