Hi! I have a 200sx-se

When first starting out in 2nd or 3rd gear, or going up hills, my RPMs go all the way to 4 for a few seconds, and then back to normal. It is really bad in 3rd gear. It feels like a fuel injection problem, but I cant say for certain. I was afraid it wouldn't make it up the hill last night. What do you think? and any rough estimate on cost? (Nothing I will hold anyone to, just want to be somewhat prepared)

If you have any other questions for me, let me know. Thank you for your time!

Hi eho,

Looks like you have a slipping clutch.

Sory I am unable to provide the cost of clutch replacement.
