Default A couple of questions....

I just acquired a 92 Stealth R/T TT. I've had something happen a couple times now & I'm looking for some help. The car will not start unless the clutch is all the way to the floor. One day went to start & nothing; not the battery because the radio, air, fuzz buster, etc all came on. It's not the starter because I'm sure I'd hear some clicking. I thought the floor mat had got under the clutch a bit so I moved it back & the car started up. No problem. Then it happened again yesterday. I completely removed the floor mat & still nothing. Do you think the hydraulic clutch could be low on fluid? Any thoughts? It took awhile but it finally started when I really pushed the clutch hard.

The alarm....goes off for no reason. Any quick fixes short of snapping the darn cable? LOL

The car is a beauty other than that. Only has 69K miles & has been babied. It looks brand spankin' new except for the drivers seat is starting to show some wear. If this starting thing happens again I think I may just get rid of it as I don't have time for problems & this is not my main mode of transportation.

Somewhere on the clutch pedal assembly should be a switch. You should be able to adjust the switch so it makes a good contact with the the actuator. I don't think it has anything to do with your fluid level.

On my RT, the alarm will go off for no reason as well. It sucks that the alarm arms automatically once the doors are locked, no matter the method of locking them. I just quit locking my doors. One benefit of living in the burbs. (not that locking a car really matters to a car thief, but it does help keep honest people honest.)
