Replacing the clutch of a front wheel drive car more often requires the transmission removal than the engine and that means removing the front wheels and partially dismantling the brakes and front steering/suspension in order to remove the drive shafts. Such rotating parts if not refitted correctly can cause vibration. Whatever the reason for the vibration and stalling, you just paid to have a problem solved and not to have new problems created so I advise you to return the car to the repairer as soon as possible for free-of-charge rectification and don't drive it anywhere else or drive it at high speed until the cause has been established - just in case something didn't get tightened...

problem is with over inflating the tires,causing middle tread wear,as long as you have more the 3/32 tread wear in the middle than you are ok.always set tire pressure when cold at around 33psi,check tire inflation sticker on dar jam for exact tire pressure

Good day this motor / on the crank pulley is it gear with teeth or plat with hole

Hi Tom: If you open the hood (bonnet) and look at the brake master cylinder there should be an electrical connection. The thing on the cylinder that the wires connect to will be the switch. I'd try unpluging it and then use a continuity meter to try to check the switch function. DEFINITELY replace the switch if it is not functioning correctly. It would be DANGEROUS to simply dis-connect it and then drive without brake lights.

Check light bulb and fuse.

need to be plugged into a diagnostic machine

if the coil is tested fully and is good where have you checked for it being good? have you checked if the HT lead from the coil to the distributor is carrying power? If you have power at the distributor cap , all the contacts are good, the rotor is fine, (check current at the distributor cap centre pin) then the likely problem is the machanism for firing, i.e. Hall sensor . I would check all the HT leads, distributor cap, rotor etc. you should carry out the checks systematically. I.E. First check at the coil with a multi meter. Then check at the end of the Ht lead from coil to distributor , actually within the lead itself , for current. then attach it to distributor if it shows a current...if you are getting a current from the distributors centre pin the issue is probably the cap itself, the rotor arm, the firing system, it will probably be electronic as mechanical distributors went out some years before I think. or if that is okay, the leads themselves. I would guess that is is distributor cap or firing system related'

My 93 Toyota Corolla shuttered then the check engine light came on and now the car has no power and will not go over 3000 rpm. Any idea what could be the problem?

Have you read the codes? That should give a clue as to what is wrong.

You mean the stick just falls into gear? while engine is running and the car lurches forward? I would say the gates are wore out in the transmission, but even at that, it should not go in gear unless you have the clutch pushed in, IF it were to try to engage while car is running, the shifter would come in contact with the gear in the trans and grind because the clutch would not be engaged. Maybe somehow the linkage got bent on the transmission while they were replacing the pulley on the car or a bushing broke on the shifter linkage?

I do not know the exact location but you have 2 fuse boxes, one under the hood on drivers side and one inside by the left foot kick panel.

If you have a 12 volt test lamp, try this: Turn on the rear defroster. Attach the clamp to a good ground point; the door latch hoop is good)...Now, touch the test lamp to the extreme left and extreme right sides of the grids, on the inside of the glass. If the light does not light in either place, you probably either have a bad defroster relay, or the wires coming to the rear grids is off. Please feel free to get back to me with the results of your test.

Removing the bottom hose to radiator will accomplish the drain.
