Your 1997 Dodge Stratus automatic transmission only shifts as far as 2nd gear is there a solution to this problem that does not require rebuilding or replacing the transmission like relay or other?

The problem may be the module that shifts the transmition from gear to gear. Is the car in second gear only? If so its in a safe mode so you can still drive it off a highway if needed. This also happens when the speedometer sensor goes bad and the transmition doesnt know when to shift. I had this happen on a highway and it cost about $350.00 for the fix. Replaced the module and speed sensor. Good luck

What is automotive clutch?

A giant plate with metal flanges and metal bands with springs and friction

material when the clutch pedal is depressed you are actually pressing the spring in the clutch through mechanical

linkage and opening the metal flanges to allow the transmission to shift into gear by a

shaft to connect to the crankshaft.

As mentioned above it is two metal plates , the flywheel, the one attached to the engine , and, the pressure plate, the one connected to the gearbox, and a friction disk, called the clutch plate, in between. The metal flanges in the pressure plate act as springs , allowing the two metal plates to separate, loosing friction , and allowing momentary stoppage of power to the gearbox, allowing the operator to change gears, who in turn releases the tension on the springs , allowing friction to occur, and power to drive the gearbox and the wheels.

How do you Bleed a slave cylinder?

METHOD A: 1- prepare your tools, replacement fluids, and protective coverings/absorbent materials. 2- get another person to help. 3- top off the fluid reservoir. 4- pressurize the line to the slave cylinder by working the actuating arm/pedal/motor on the master cylinder. When pressure builds up, maintain pressure while the bleeder valve/screw is opened.. MAINTAIN PRESSURE WHILE THIS IS OPENED. 5- When the pressure is released, close the bleeder BEFORE releasing the lever/pedal or reversing the motor on the master cylinder. 6- repeat until all air is out of line. It is important to maintain the fluid lever in the reservoir during this process. Some systems will require topping off every 2nd or 3rd repetition, others may be able to be filled once for the process, depending on the capacity of the reservoir. If this is for a vehcile, it is advisable to optain a good shop repair manual, such as CHilton, Haynes, Motor, Seloc, or clymer, or an original factory repair manual. The specific process for your application will be covered in more detail, and specific issues that may apply will be explained.

What is the difference between Dot3 and Dot4 brake fluid?

dot4 fluid boils at higher temperature than dot3 fluid. The higher boiling point is important in applications that require lots of braking because the friction caused by breaking creates substantial amounts of heat. If your break fluid boils it is no longer any good and needs to be replace by new fluid.

How do you replace the spring on the external clutch operating arm on a 1969 VW Bug?

First, loosen the clutch cable, and remove the wing nut all the way and pull the cable out of the way. Mark the outside of the arm in case you forget which way it goes back together. Look at the end of the shaft where the arm attaches. There is a small circlip (circular clip with 2 small holes). Spray it down with WD40 or equivalent and let it soak a few. Remove the circlip...you will need some circlip pliars specially designed to remove and install the clip. Then, the arm should slide out, off of the shaft. Some prying might be needed to get it started...just be careful not to force anything. The old, and probably broken, spring will come off now. Reassemble. The arm is splined so that it only goes on one way. Take a good look so that you see how the splines work and how to get it back together. Rememer which side is the outside? Hook the 'hook' part of the spring around the arm and slide the arm and spring back on the shaft. The spring is correct as long as the hook part of the spring wraps around and contacts the part of the arm closest to the front of the vehicle. As you start sliding the arm onto the shaft, you will see that the straight part of the spring end needs to be popped up onto the shelf near the front of the vehicle...giving it it's springing action. This can be a little tricky, but not too bad. Once you have the spring seated correctly, the arm will slide all the way back on. It is all the way in as long as the groove that the circlip fits into is visible. Finally, replace the circlip and readjust the clutch. Don't tighten the cluth too much, or it will ride your throughout bearing and wear your cluch prematurely. There should be just a tad of slop in the pedal before you feel the clutch start to engage. And last thing...be really careful if you are jacking up your vehicle and working under it. Always work on a flat and hard surface. Always use jack stands and block the front wheels. Have fun and be safe.

When is a good time to have a clutch replaced in a 97 tacoma?

The SC uses an hydrolic setup, therefore there are no adjustments. However, some of the slave cylinders come without a bleeder screw, thus making difficult to bleed. The solution is to disconnect the connection line to the slave cylinder and pressure bleed the system, in addition, be sure to bleed the master first.
