I'm going to school this September for automotive mechanic.
I own a 94 gs. Engine seems to be in good shape with 175k on the body and engine and the clutch is dying. I seem to have an issue with my rear back tire as well, almost sound like something is hitting my tire or something.
Back to the point, I'm not sure if I should change the clutch and just leave it, or change the engine as well to the klze. From my understanding the change will cost roughly 1 grand, I'll be doing th labour (first time ever doing this). I'm jus tot sure if it's worth it for my car. It does have two huge rust holes and the body does have a decent amount of dinks in it.
What should I look over to help me better judge if it's worth it?
clutch is dying. new engine or what?
Re: clutch is dying. new engine or what?
Replacing the clutch is no big deal. The tire noise may be a bad strut. Your car has low mileage so if the engine is running well then put a a new clutch in and check if one of your rear struts is leaking.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
