New owner of 1810/2000!

[Gvr4E]

Hey everyone, my name is Ethan! I recently bought 1810/2000 from New Hampshire. Was planing on driving her back to IL but after 10 hours of driving the CEL came on, so I called it for the day. Next morning the slave cyl was puking fluid all over the place and the clutch has zero pressure. Ended up having the car shipped back to IL and she is now in my garage. This is my first GVR4 and I love it. Right now the plan is maintenance. The engine is running like it has a bad vac leak. Going to test and see what code I pull and move on from there. Any tips on diagnosis would be great! Really looking forward to getting into this community. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

welcome! I would do a boost leak test and replace the throttle body seals. If they haven't been done they are most likely leaking. then move on the the other issues.

Sounds like you're on a great start getting to know your car. Get ready because you're going to make it rain for 1810. We have plenty of info specific to our cars and obviously info available on everything else the car shares with its dsm cousins. Make yourself at home, drop some pics of said car and welcome to our community.

So my friend and I did the slave today. After further examination we noticed that master was leaking from the inside down the clutch pedal. So new master for the next fix! Still have to fix the CEL. Going to connected an LED to the scanner terminal to pull the code.
