Default Re: Clutch Chatter

I would assume that the bushing I just removed from the car (the one that Rick P. put in it last fall) was from NAPA, since that's where he bought the clutch. I don't know whether or not it is an Oilite bushing, but a magnet definitely does stick to it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

I just ordered a new pilot bushing from RockAuto.com so will see what that is like.

Wash &amp; dry it thoroughly then hold a cigarette lighter or lit match up to it. If it sweats oil, it's an Oilite.

I think the new bushings are bronze coated steel.
