My clutch started slipping a few months ago and I knew that I would have to replace it soon so I took the car to the local mechanis and they wanted 300 bucks for labour so I decided to become a mechanic and replace it myself having never done anything like this before. So for anyone who is considering doing it yourself, do it, its easy (as long as you have a haynes manual or similar) it only took me, alone by myself, a mere 4 hours. If anybody has any questions ley me know. The car I did it on was my 1997 Mazda Protege

ok your message is that you have replaced your clutch
and you want us to message you, to get some worthwhile information about it/?
How about you post this information here?
I mean you have failed to provide any information other than how long it took you.
You are a waste of my calories.
Im getting an upset tummy thinking about this. The worst spam message is like... its not even advertising anything.
It just says hi Im billy bob and my IQ is 70.http://www.cardomain.com/id/stamar

It's comforting to know that it's not as hard as it sounds. And now you know that all you need is a Haynes or Chiltons manual.
Do you want a ****ing DIY for everything? I'm glad he took the time to share, it was a hell of a lot more productive than your post, where you just complain because he bothered to tell us that clutch replacement is a feasible DIY, which is good to know.

sorry for being so rude.
But I editorialized like I saw it lol. There was no useful information related. I think my clutch is going great and probably wont need that repair.
But, it would be good to put into my subconsiousness things like, what tools required, helpers, location etc. But I didnt get that ;o(
Just got that yours is going strong now. I"m happy for you thats cool. In order to do this, do you also have to bleed the brakes because its common resevoir? i thought about this when I was looking through my manual one day.
Did you do it with jacks or with a cherry picker engine hoist?http://www.cardomain.com/id/stamar
