Squeak when clutch is depressed. & What tools needed for starter replacement ?
Well, First question is when i am idling i hear a squeak dunno from where but its a bit loud and if i just push the clutch pedal in a Centermeter the squeak goes away. where could this be coming from?
2nd Question is- What tools do i need to change out my starter its a 94 GT.
sounds like same issue ive been having...if it sounds like a chirping supposedly the pilot bearing is worn out. im planning on replacing my clutch/flywheel, etc. to solve the problem, instead of just replacing the bearing.
how do you guys know its the pilot bearing and not the throwout bearing?

don't forget to put on some protective eye glasses when swaping out that starter, nothing better then some crud dropping in your eye when your under the car. also don't forget to shim the starter.

some times a replacement starter will not line up on the block and engage with the fly wheel correctly. it may need a small thin pc of metal better known as a shim slid in between the block and the starter motor to get the correct alignment. this is not always the case some starters bolt in with no issues. however when starting the car for the first time after you instal the starter if you hear a load noise you may have to put a shim in place. the noise will be loud. like turning the key again after the car is started.

yea, that is what my starter does now that i have in the car! maybe all it needs is a shim? i already bought the new one but haven't put it on. what size are the bolts on starter?
it doesnt matter its either the pilot bearing or the throwout bearing but either way the tranny has to come out
