Clutch problems can't chage gear
Sounds
like it could be just an adjustment problem. If your car has a cable to
the clutch it could be stretched enough to not let it disengage enough.
Or the other scenario is that your pressure plate and disk are worn out
finally. Try the adjustment first.
Hi i am working for neavy as a technition
make sure the battery is fully charged BEFORE starting, you might have a small battery drain that kills the battery over night and when you push start it, the alternator kicks in and charges it up enough thru use of the day to fool you
Engine stalls.
either your idle point needs to be reset or you have failing vacuum lines.
Engine is surging when its idiling
Idle Air Control valve issue possibly. If the car runs good off idle I would inspect for vacuum leaks first. Spray water sparingly and listen for anything getting sucked in.. If no leaks are found I would suspect this valve. Also as a test you could unplug the throttle position sensor and see if something changes. Testing components is really the way to go before replacing parts if you know how and have the right multimeter. Also if the car has a maf sensor near the air filter make sure no leaks are in the tube to the throttle body.
My daihatsu fourtrak 2.8 is bloody thirsty
Do you have a lot of black smoke this is the first sign of a vehicle over fueling. First check is the air filter replace if needed. Next is injector wear. Get the injectors tested and if faulty then get them reconditioned or new ones if the injectors and air filter are not the cause then get the injector pump checked for output preasure to the injector's. Hope this help's. Cheers
Brown liquid on floor of cab
About the only liquid that passes through the passenger compartment is coolant through the heater core so that item may have developed a leak.
If it is brown, the coolant may be way overdue for a flush and a change.
You might sniff the liquid to see if you find any trace of coolant odor.
