Help Lsd question

[White Zombie]

I have a 90 turbo auto. I did A manual trans swap an all was fine for a month, now My car acts like the clutch slips. I pulled it out. And the clutch looked fine. Is it possible the lsd is slipping ? Making the car feel like the clutch is slipping? The car only slips when I accelerate quickly. Otherwise it seems normal. I under stand this model has a Torsen lsd? does it have clutch pacs like the older models?

Are you confusing spinning tires and a slipping clutch? A bad LSD will not cause a rise in engine speed without a rise in tire speed.

you cant "slip" a diff without the tires letting loose.
Your clutch is probably slipping and you just cant see the wear.

That is because loose gravel under snow increaes traction in the snow.

and if you were goin uphill it might help



on amore serious note, it sounds like your clutch is slipping, when you replaced it did you get the flywheel resurfaced, and of course no oil or shit on it.
