Clutch burning? - 4/22/2008 3:44:50 PM    srt10boy Posts: 39 Joined: 12/2/2007 Status: offline I started noticing a metallic smell in my cab when I accelerate hard from 3rd and 4th gear. I dont get the smell from first or second during hard acceleration. This probably a dumb question, but is my clutch going or is it somehting else? I've read in previous post how the stock clutch is not to good. Got 27,800 on my RC and is a daily driver. Let me know, thanks! _____________________________ srt10boy Post #: 1

If you are feeling bold run the revs to 2.5K and pop the clutch and mash the gas.  A good clutch will handle it, a weak one, well it will smoke  _____________________________ -94 Viper RT/10<--Click -04 Ram SRT-10<--Click Supercharged! -05 Ram 4x4 Hemi (in reply to srt10boy) Post #: 2
