sorry Pat, that wasn't meant @ you, it was meant to be more like a "well, duh!" response.
a friend of mine who works @ a Cadillac dealership, had a customer's car come in for a vibration issue. before they could figure out the problem, the harmonic balancer came flying through the hood, & across the shop into the wall!
seems the main bolt had bcome loose. it then "walked" the balancer off of the crank snout. and when the bolt broke @ the shop, out it came.
tell me about it, dude doesn't even know where the clutch is. just listening to him talk @ the begining, tells you how much of a tool this guy is.
he should only be allowed to own & drive a '82 diesel Chevette-automatic!

but you're right, it's gonna cost him large to get the clutch done (although it's probably not fried completely, it sure as hell isn't gonna perform very good from now on.
anyone else notice that when he goes to "pop" the hood, he opens the hatch glass. does this guy own the car-or was it a customer's car @ the shop? ooooOOOO!!!
another thing i noticed (the first time) was that the idiot that was filming-he keeps going around the front of the car, back & forth.........can you say road kill if the guy slips on the brake pedal-or the brakes/tires simply let go.
take them outta the gene pool, 'cause these tools are contaminating it.
other than the entertainment factor, why would you post a vid for the world to see, showing how incompetent you are @ one of the simpilest things to do-especially with that much power @ hand. i know it has big nasty brakes, but come on, it should over power them no problem.
mind you, the young guy did say there was only "8000 miles on the tires, so time to say bye-bye". guess whoever owns the Vette beat on it to smoke a set of tires in 8K.
