I was pulling up to a stop sign and the car jerked twice, but I thought I just slipped on some black ice (bad weather here). So I go to take off from the stop normally and it totally gave out at about 5mph. I rolled to a stop and looked underneath to see fluid coming out somewhere. I never heard of an MTX leaking fluid before. My clutch pedal is fine with pressure and I had absolutely no problems before this.
It's a long shot, but has this happened to anyone before?

I'd look up terry hienes <SP> and drop him a post. He should be able to point you in the right direction. Add if you need to pull it.. think about the quafie better clutch etc while your at it.

Yah.. Either that or the differential gave out and shot some pieces of itself through the trans case.

I just got back from vacation to find a expensive mess.
The case blew out cause of the diff. I just called Terry and I'm probably going to have him fix her up with a Quaife since I don't want to see this happen again.

Yeah, I talked to Terry already. My tranny shop is "supposedly" pulling the tranny early this week to send it to him. I'm also getting the Quaife. It would be stupid not to get it. I need it for snow and some track use.
