clutch doesn't work after driving 15 minutes
 
I have a 91 240sx and I dropped the trans and reinstalled the clutch not too long ago. First I didn't torque down the master cylinder bolts hard enouph so the clutch got magma hot then started to quit. I torqued them down and now the clutch works fine for about 15 minutes, then starts to slip. Time for a new clutch or did I do something wrong when installing the clutch?

Sounds like you toasted the clutch to hell the first time. I think you have to take a trip to buy a new one bro.

Clutch has been replaced and works great now. One thing kind of weird was the ball the the fork sits on was sheered in half. Don't know what that was all about. Also the slave cylinder was leaking. Werid though. All those parts that I used came from perfectly working clutch systems. Thanks guys!
