Post by: callummk4reed on 19 May 2012, 20:43

Hey guys im all in a cuffufle every time I put my foot down in my mk2 to leave a sh!troen saxo for.dust I keep getting a delay in power it revs high but then the speed kicks in and the engine slows.

Stop racing Saxos and get a second opinion on the clutch.

Clutch. There's your second opinion.

Think about it, revs rise, road speed doesn't. What is the only component between the flywheel and the gearbox?
