Drivetrain question. Help Please!!

[Stainbox12]

I have my car jacked, for a problem i had getting the car into gears.. the car shifts through gears, but when i take my foot from the clutch pedal, the car doesn´t stall. so my question is this. Does the traction comes out from the Left Hand driveshaft (driver side)?. Because i took it out, and i haven´t installed it yet, but i started the car and the Right side driveshaft doesn´t spin at all. Does the car needs to be on the floor for the car to stall when the clutch is released?

When the car is jacked up, the differential sends power to the wheel with the least resistance. In this case it would be the side with the axel removed. I would almost bet that the trans. is trying to spin that side since there is no load on it. With a limited slif diff, then both sides should spin any way. I would put the axel in and try again. Just my .02
Good luck

That means i must be right in my theory then. The right driveshaft must be spinning and not the left one. My car is a 90, so i don´t have any LSD. Would a car without driveshafts stall when the clutch is depressed?

No. Just get a flashlight and look through the fender well to see if the inside of the trans. is spinning. A car will stall when depressed if the tranmission isn't bolted up completely and square.

yes, i think the tranny is not completly bolted up. But what do you mean by square?. Also when i asked would a car without driveshafts stall when the clutch is depressed? i guess you answered no, im i right?

It won't stall unless the tranmission isn't bolted up tight. It causes damage to the clutch as well.
