Hi all,
I've had my 1989 Power Ram 50 for about 3 years, now. It is a 5 speed manual (KM-145) with 4x4. For the 3 years I've had her, she's always done this weird thing where the clutch will behave normally until she warms up (after prolonged highway or stop-and-go driving, for example), and then shudder a lot when accelerating from a stop afterwards (and only in first gear). I'm no expert mechanic, but I have checked the cable adjustment and made sure there wasn't too much play in the clutch pedal. Still no improvement. For 3 years I've put up with it, even taking it to a transmission shop for a free inspection only to be told there was nothing wrong with it and that maybe I just needed to gas it a little more.
Did some googling and came up with something called a Bowden tube, but thought those were unique to old VWs. Any of you guys know what the issue might be?
Thanks,
Bones
