Wow, ok, I"m confused... In all my years involved with cars I've never experieced this. I get in my 7 turn it on, let it warm up and all that good stuff. I put it in first, start driving shift at like 5k and POP, something odd happened. Engine is fine, but the tranny wont let me put it in gear. and the pedal stayed at the ground...
now:
-when pedal pushed in, it dosn't make a difference. Its like the clutch is always engaged.
-I cant put it into a gear unless the car is off.
-I'm getting grey hairs.
I have never really werked with trannys and more over never even heard of this happening. I missed a date with a REALLY good looking girl who made me laugh (something that hasn't happened in awhile), so this car is GOING to be fixed whether it likes it or not.

Replace the hose too if you wanna... It's about $100 for all the parts together (At least for the 1st gen. 2nd gen shouldn't be too much different.) Takes about an hour or two.

sounds like the slave cylinder popped. happened to my car the day before i was gonna pick it up from the shop. but like pele said....might wanna replace both master and slavee just to be sure. replace hose too (can be ricerish and get a stainless braided hose if you want )

I also have one it's blue it didn't make much of a difference. but it's not ricer. It won't wear out like a regular rubber hose, and it cost about the same to replace.

It feels kinda weird knowing that if it breaks on me, I have NOTHING in the car with which to make ANY type of repairs... Yet somehow, I'm comforted by the logo on the Dash.

These devices work fine, but there is a major problem with them. Perhaps someone can guess what that is.

The Auto tranny popped yesterday on my way to work. All gears = Neutral.
My buddy has already paid me for $200 or so in parts that have gone on the car. (Full tune-up, rear brake hardware, shoes, and hydraulics...)
And the guy just got his license back today too.
Anyone think it wouldn't have broken if I hadn't said something like that?
Man, I hate automatic transmissions. So complex... One failure = immobility. Strip a gear in a manual, just skip it. Eh Jason?
Ugh. At least it's safe in the work parking lot, so nobody'll hit it and leave a note with their insurance information.

wee! I'm changing the subject!
Yesterday Jason and I took his 7 to 8800 rpms... (and it was still producing power), but in the process fried his ignition module (it's some POS GM rigged up stuff that I set up till I can get the stock leading working this week with the stock CAS). It kinda sucked; he took it to 8800, then we drove it like 30 or 40 miles, then suddnly the tach signal from the module goes frickin haywire. I get out of the car, and go futz with the wiring and stuff, start the car back up, and it seems fine. Start driving it again, tach signal goes haywire and takes the TPS signal with it (musta been some interesting electrical interferance in the engine bay at that point). So we called brandon, who rushed from home with the cheaper but better replacement module, I do a quick replacement of it, and bam! it works fine... and actually runs smoother than before.
I think the fact that we had dwell at 3.3 ms, and discharge time at .5 ms (total 3.8 ms) is part of what killed it.... we ran the poor module at 114% duty cycle at 8800 rpms. So I dropped the dwell to 3.2 ms with the new module, but I think the new module was made to handle more dwell than the other one, b/c the car ran a lot smoother, and the tach signal is now a lot more stable.... the coil pins on the module are a lot thicker too... which tells me it can probably handle more current.
OK enough rambling... just thought it was cool we are tuned well enough to hit almost 9000 rpms now... and the AFR never got too far away from 13.2:1 which is what we tuned for... (although there is some question on whether that is the BEST AFR to be aiming for).

He had to hold the clutch down to stop it from moving in neutral... THAT'S when **** is bad, when you can move a manual tranny car in neutral. He promptly drained it and put proper gear oil in.
