Trying to pinpoint my issue here on why I'm not able to put any power down as of recently on my stock 99' GSX.
About 2 weeks ago while driving the car started making a very loud screeching noise when accelerating (like belt squeal, but more high pitched) which would go away if I got off the throttle for .5 seconds and went back on. The next day is when the issue finally arose to where I can barely get the car to move in any gear 1st-5th, although I can feel the clutch engaging for every gear.
Basically in laymen's terms the car feels like its slipping all the time but its not. I checked my axles, they aren't snapped or stripped, and I've replaced my T-case thinking it was that but it wasn't so that leaves me w/ 3 things I could possibly check which is the Front Diff, Center Diff, or Clutch even though everyone on FB says that its not the clutch.
So now its just me trying to figure out what gave out because the car will still roll a little bit when I throw it in gear, but we're talking like 10mph at max since I can't put any power down.
Quick note the car will not die if I put it in any gear and let off the clutch w/no accelerator, it'll just creep forward/backward depending on which gear I'm in. I've attached a video below on what the car did the night it happened while in 4th gear going like 15mph initially (no I'm not spinning tire)
