clutch feels like it has alot of pressure but wont dissange. car grinds when u try and put it into gear. was wonderin if anybody has any ideas or if maybe its the rubber dampener

 

Very possible, how many miles/years are on the clock.

 

it reads 46k. i have heard bout the rubber dampener shreading and it geting stuck between the clutch disk and flywheel keeping it engaged. any advice?

 

If it is on the original rubber clutch, that is very possible. I would also check the linkages on the transmission as well.

 

we had her up on the lift yesterday to adress the problem and it seemed to be ok. the linkage was working. the only thing i saw wrong was the c shaped spring really wasnt doin anything. as it just kind sat there and moved from its seat very slightly when the clutch was depressed. and the clutch cable is at the end of adjustment so do u think we should just go ahead and replace it anyway?

 

Do you have access to a Bentley manual? If so, I would remove the clutch linkage completely off the transaxle, and re install it following the procedure. The C spring should be under load if it is set up properly. If that doesn't take care of it, then you are looking at a clutch job.

 

no i dont have one yet. but iam going to get one but i think i am just gunna replace it any way just to get rid of any doubt and the rubber parts. thanks for ur input.
