note to self - dont powershift the s-10 - Original Pony Car

**aar0s** · 10-25-2009, 09:32 PM

one too many 1-2 powershifts, if there is such a thing with that truck, and i broke something in the trany. this being my anniversary weekend i didn't have time to pull it to the shop so the dude i work for was cool enough to have a couple of my co-workers do Saturday morning. I'm hoping its just the clutch, its been making a funny whurrrrring noise when i first start it but with my luck it will be something major like a muffler bearing :bang:

HAHAHA!!! Muffler bearing! You goof...S-10's didn't come with muffler bearings!!! That's like sayin you didn't know how to check your turn signal fluid levels....everyone knows how to do that!

LOL! On a serious note...it could be something as simple as the clutch and/or the combination of the pilot/throw-out bearing too.
