Okay to start out after having to drive through heavy rain my 5spd 99' Integra LS with B18C Swap earlier today my LS Tranny started giving me a problem. As soon as I started spinning on take off through 1-2 gear then normal shifting through 3,4,5....
Problem I'm Having:
When driving normal or laying into it my clutch peddle is harder to push & a little harder to go into gear.... I'm "guessing I've got an OEM clutch or OEM replacement" because it feels like your normal clutch before this issue started today. The clutch engaging but low as crap, stiffer than before... When I go into reverse to back out of parking spot or where ever, then go to put it back into 1st gear & take off casually I get the infamous burning clutch smell for no more than like 15 seconds & it clears up. While driving casually driving or giving more throttle I get no smell what so ever & clutch does not feel like its slipping at all & I have no grinding what so ever "unless the clutch isn't pushed all the way to the floor in 1st gear!
Can this be a sign of:
A. Bad Slave Cylinder?
B. Bad Master Cylinder?
C. Bad Pressure Plate/Flywheel/Clutch
D. Air in the Clutch Line "needing re-bled?
I've never had this happen to any Honda's I've ever owned & I'm sure it seems like I'm all over the place with this issue, but its the best way I know to explain it! PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE WITH THIS ISSUE!
