Thats what the mechanic said to me this morning. I was at his house so I wasn't going to ask him to fix it, just for advice (I know him personally).
He was trying to tell me what was happening, but I was having trouble following as he said it was really hard to explain and he was having trouble relating it.
I don't have ABS or any of that crap. Not even power steering
And my breaks are only power assisted. He thinks that a bit of moister has gotten into the slave cyclinder and is causing it to do what its doing. He also said that it could cause me to get a spoungy break, because it would heat up and turn to a gas, which is combustible.
While I was waiting for a mate to jump in the car later on, I could hear a clicking. To me it sounded like something was sparing. I got opened the bonnet and one of the plugs on the distributor had come off. It was sparking against the distributor itself. I asked one of my other mates who had just walked up the drive (apprentice mechanic) and he told me that it would had been running a bit rough. Which it had. Extremly rough. Felt like the clutch wasn't coming into proper contact.
Also a MASSIVE crack in the air intake tube. It connects the air filter to the engine, I don't know what its called, so I'm pretty much driving around without an air filter ATM (get that fixed tomorrow)
Anyway. I've hijacked the thread Sorry.
