    The Stupid Electronics Questions Thread

    I finally get to hook up a CB radio in my 98 K1500. I've had CB's in a lot of different vehicles over the years but never had on that would stumble when you key the mike to transmit. I have good grounds all around, antenna cable not close to the ECM or nothing. I'm stumped on this one.

    Clutch engages at the floor.

    Do yo have all free play until that point in pedal? Have someone push the pedal while you watch the slave actuate. If pedal travels all the way down until the slave starts to move you have leaking/bad clutch master cylinder. Is fluid up to level?
