Help Clutch/Flywheel Problems
Ok I could use a bit of advise before I go and start just changing parts out, but a few months ago I blew my Spec Stage 1 clutch up on my 02 GT. So I replaced the clutch with a OEM one and resurfaced the flywheel and all was fine.
About a month later and about 900 miles after I put the new clutch in, I hear something chattering away like a woodpecker, but it only does it when the clutch pedal is released. I have also noticed that the noise gets worse and the car heats up.
I am hoping that it is just the flywheel or the clutch. Anyone got any thoughts?

Rest your foot lightly on the the clutch pedal. Just enough to take up the free play in the cable and put pressure on the throw out bearing. If the noise goes away, you need to replace the T.O.B. or just keep listening to that annoying chatter.
