B-series hydro trans problems in my dc2
Alright I literally pulled over right now because of this issue.
When I was driving on the highway right now I was cruising in 5th gear anid d all of a sudden I felt the car just stop keeping a steady speed and slowing down. I down shifted to 4th and it caught and accelled.
Now it did it again for a 2nd time and I downshifted numerous times and nothing ....the moto was reving but no acceleration.
Id search but its 0530 and I just got off wrk and I'm on the fuckn high way.
Is the cluth disengaging? Is my fly wheel fucked? Idk I'm not transmission savy so I'm at a loss.
Doesn't feel like its popping out of gear either. Fabrik or duane input would be great.
Thanks skanks and please not dumb ass responses...
I already read lord humongous thread in the help desk

Normally the clutch wouldn't disengage by itself unless there is a pressure plate failure. The more likely answer is that the clutch is slipping, either from wear or from being glazed, or because there's a fluid leak somewhere that's coating the friction surface (which would be pretty noticable because of smoke, etc..). So you might just need a new clutch.
If it's slipping then it will get worse the more it slips because of heat buildup. So once everything cools down it may work like it did before, but only temporarily because it's still worn too much or something has failed..
If you find that the clutch is slipping, you'll want to check the flywheel carefully for flatness if you're going to reuse it. You'll have to resurface it of course, but there's no point in resurfacing it if it's warped from heat buildup.
So my intuition says that it's either worn or the pressure plate has partially failed, and either problem would require a complete clutch replacement.
If it was a fluid problem, you'd have a problem disengaging the clutch. If it needed to be bled, you'd have a different feel at the clutch pedal because of the sponginess of the trapped air being compressed.
