ok well when i drive normal or hard at random my car i guess shutters for a second, like my clutch is slipping. mind you that a while back i had a problem with my clutch hydrolic system not hitting the recir valve so it would keep pressure on the clutch pretty much riding it untill i got her fixed. so my question is since my car shutters driving down the road at random, is that my clutch starting to go out?

i would say if it's shuttering it could even be bad plugs or wires, replace 'em both and see if that fixes the problem

yea you dont get shuttering from a clutch. You only get slipping usually at WOT.

yea, clutch slipping would make your rpm's go up and your speed will not... i would think to do as sk8dudety said and replace the plugs n wires

you can get shuttering from a clutch, it usually happens when a little bit of fluid has been smeared onto it. if its only a little bit it causes it to shutter instead of actually slipping. you said you had a problem with the hydraulic system, that might have something to do with that, or you could possibly be leaking oil from your main seal or maybe your trans. there are a few different options to your problem
