Subject:clutch question

Hey all,

Last summer I installed a rebuilt syncro trasaxle + brand new HD Luk
clutch kit into my 91 Multivan. And all was well with the world.

This past week, while stopped at a light, clutch pedal pressed, the
van jerked forward, and engine stalled. Today, I had a similar
experience in the In 'n Out drive through, and it was difficult to get
the van back into gear until I rolled backwards a bit (should have
seen the look on the driver behind me :) ).

In any case, where should I look 1st? Does this sound like a clutch or
transaxle issue? Is there anything to check that doesn't involve
pulling everything apart?

Thanks

Joel
