no need to drop the trans. Pretty much bolt on, and bleed the clutch system and you're good to go. You're probably gonna need to remove the top mount intercooler if you still have it, otherwise its gonna be a bitch to get your hands in there. I'd recommend having a look at a Factory Service Manual (probably in the archives or FAQ of this forum), to show you what the process entails.

Got the FC back on the road guys! fixed the exhaust and the slave bleeder screw had gunk in it so i cleaned it out and it doesnt leak any more!



only thing i need to do is find where coolant is leaking. looks to me its the fill neck on the radiator!



but thanks again guys. no i have to buy tire chains its snowed last night and still gonna snow for the next three days! FML.

Your gas could have gone a little bad so the octane isnt where it should be

Heet



Go into any parts store and ask for that. It's a water remover and it works. We used to use it for semi tractors to get water out of the fuel in winter. Best of luck man

Pop your hood pull the retractor fuse and hit the switch inside to pop them up without the headlights on or just turn the headlights on all the way then tap the fuse until the come up enough or if they come up too much or not enough underneath is a **** it might be covered with a rubber boot if so pull the boot off and rotate whichever way is needed and throw the retractor fuse into the glovebox so you dont loose it
