Ok, As You Guys probably Notice i dont post much around here, but anyways I Hope im in the right area,

I Bought a 1991 Eclipse 1.8 4G37 and It Supposedly Had a new Clutch, But it still slipped, well about a Month ago, I broke the springs in the clutch and well time for a new clutch, Well i got a NEW clutch and put it in, And It Still SLips Anyone Know Why!?

BUT in the morning the car will snag Gears like its a Champ, But once it heats up, it slips like a bia, I'v checked the rear main seal, and the clutch slave cylinder came apart but we put it back together, and it still slips, Is it b/c its a 1.8 or what!?

While im Here Can a 2.0 Tranny Bolt up to the 1.8? if so Ill drop this POS 1.8 Tranny :dsm:
 
I Bled the clutch a week ago and had some air, but Yea i broke the clutch in right, and Im beginning to think its my Rear main seal, Cause its only doing it when its Hot, and, When it gets hot Oil gets thin, Im gonna try to pull the tranny out and take a look, Ill return to yall with my answer, Wish me luck!
 
Hey man...

Check your fuel injectors...they may be bad. I just had my clutch replaced, and when the mechanic was taking it out for a test drive, he said on the way back the clutch felt like it was slipping, so he went back in to take a look, and found the injectors had gone bad.

Might be something to check out...
