Angry Help - got dicked by Mechanic !!! coolant sensor ?

took my car in for the slave cyclnder, $140 ended up ($650) -

new slave- new master cylnder and some ball joint inside

transmission and to top it off now my car runs like **** and

The cluthc is worse, i have to put the pedal to the floor to

get in firt..... I am so pissed i am sick to my stomach

anyway need to get this sorted out...

Can some one tell me were the colant sensor is

on a 91 240sx. I am now not getting any reading on my

temp gauge but when was working it would go down

when i am on the gas and accelerating...

My car is idling like crap and sound like its popping when i am

comming off the gas... It is running like poop, i even tried to really

get on it and it felt like my gsxr when it needed the carbs redone--

the acceleration was breaking up around 7,000rpm.


thx,J

7k rpm? isnt the redline around 6500?
IMO generally when you take the car in to get the clutch fixed it isnt suppose to affect the engine at all.

what exacty is your question? "what is causing all thease problems?"

ur suzuki at 7k rpm's right ? When I replaced my clutch I had to mess with the clutch pedal adjustments, becuase I had to push the pedal all the way to the floor to shift and the clutch was slipping a bit. I ajusted the master cylinder rod first and then adjusted the clutch pedal stopper. All this is done from inside the car. The transmission sounded a bit rough at first but after about a couple of hours of driving its like brand new.
