Hooked everything up correctly this time and it all worked. It doesn't even appear that I need the 15A fuses many have suggested. Perhaps come winter I will. I reiterate, read the directions...

If I'm hearing an intermittent noise now, is this something I need to get fixed ASAP? I'm guessing if it were to seize that would cause many problems.

I've only owned the car since spring, but I do have extensive service records from the original owner. I'll go get them out of the car and look to see if he ever replaced the clutch.

Well if it were just the throw-out bearing I"d save about $330 on parts!!! And the only time I hear any weird noise is when I depress the clutch. Not after or when the car is moving, just when I push...

I've been watching a very consistent oil leak pattern (I don't have a way myself to get under the car to see it) the past 3 weeks. I also seem to have a noisy clutch. It seems to whirr when depressed...
