just replaced the clutch with a friend 2 days ago we were done so late and today trying to start the car and is not starting.It cranks but dont start.
Please tell me we did not have to do anything special when we replaced the clutch.Cause was really p.i.t.a
By the way i disconected the battery before we started.
Someone mention starter sensor.i will check that tonight!
Its so weird

Thank you in advance

 

kevin fro UMW said we may moved or bended the flywheel sensor or ruin the teeth from the flywheel and the sensor doesnt read,who sounds right
Thanks Kevin
thats what happen when i try to save money
i deserve it!

 

Good luck mate, hope you get it sorted!

 

Billystang, First check to see if your tach moves when you are cranking. If no movement than your crank trigger is n/g. After that check that you connected all the lines going to the starter. Tim

 

ok
Problem fixed today.
we found out we pinched the wire from the sensor for the flywheel,i think when we was moving the tranny to take it off.
so one of the wire was cut .
We fixed it and the car start right-up.
Thank God!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the help guys!
Im happy again

 

Congrats on finishing the job successfully despite the minor wire damage issue. I have heard that doing the clutch is more frustrating than rewarding. How many hours did it take? Did you use a lift? What was the most difficult part (I have heard that it is stabbing the tranny).

 

Sounds like Kevin was right

 

Great tip on the tach to check the crankshaft sensor....

 

me and a Gm mechanic friend started 12:30 pm and finished 9:00pm
yes i do have a lift
if we do it again i believe will be 6 hours
Kevin said is easy to dissasembled the tranny of the engine,but we was trying for about a hour and the damn tranny will not come off.
off course we did it Sunday and everyone was closed
im sure should be a trick or another way,but we had to take the bolts of pressure plate to flywheel to disengage the tranny
we did the same think put it back together.That was the hard part,all rest was easy.

 

i thought that test was to see if the starter works.like if turns the flywheel
but if was for the sensor yes was a great tip

 

Yes Kevin was right!
