Visit your car na lang and check the fluid on the clutch, pag me bawas dagdag nyo. kasi pag inubos nya lahat yan eh hindi mo mailalabas yung auto sa talyer nya, kahit lagyan mo ng fluid yan, kelangan pang i-bleed para walang hangin so pag ganun sya din gagawa. If you can afford the clutch assembly change it na lang, kasi if luma na yun, baka kahit palitan yung repair kit at me tama na yung cylinder you'll just go back. IMHO

Maraming salamat sa tip po. may ballpark figure ka po or idea kung magkanong damage pag papalitan ang clutch assembly na sinasabi nyo? thanks

Update lang po, salamat sa lahat ng nag reply

got car back about 4 days ago, so far so good, no oil leaks and engine is running smooth, may konting drops of clutch fluid pa rin sa loob and ill get that checked when i can. thanks!

Question po uli please.. i changed my spark plugs and started using bosch platinum plugs, okay lang kaya na ito ang gamitin ko, usually short distances lang mga drive ko, mga 20km a day.. and okay rin kaya shell premium gamitin ko or better if petron xcs, i noticed kasi minsan nagiging rough un acceleration after ko magpuno ng shell premium, and one last po, is it okay if i just leave the breather hose hanging at di ko na ikabit sa air filter case? thank you!

Okay naman bosch platinum pag toyota kasi NGK kadalasan gamit ko . Toyota 12R makina mo . Okay lang naman na nakakabit ang breather hose sa air filter case iyon kasi ang stock na pinaglalagyan nito.

Kung same specs sya sa original (gap clearance, etc) ok lang. Pero kung hindi ka sure, ibalik mo na lang yung stock plugs.

Better if you use gasoline na wala pang halong ethanol like Petron Blaze (for the meantime, next year Blaze will also be mixed with E10 as mandated by law). Since its an old car with an old engine, better have a trusted carb mechanic check and if possible "upgrade" it so it will resist the ethanol content. Some rubber parts of the fuel line from the gas tank to the engine may also require replacement.

Thank you po. Ibabalik ko un hose sa may kabitan ng air filter, pansin ko lang kasi pag medyo matagal tagal nang nakakabit parang may oil residue sa may lalagyan ng air filter
