I appreciate your willingness to experiment and freely share your results. I wish you best of luck and be safe.

I get where your coming from financially. My car has 133K miles and, at 17 years old, the last nine of which have been mine, I've of the opinion that the car owes me nothing. That being said, if I'm still the owner when the car needs a clutch, I'll replace the bearing.

My math is kind of like this....
Current value of car: $7.5K
Value as a roller (worst case):$2.5K
Spending $1500-$2,000 to just go ahead and replace the bearing seems like very expensive insurance.

Please understand that I'm all for the bearing change with a clutch. I sleep well at night not worrying about this thing although I do find the discussions worth reading.
