Hey guys, Recently Had my Clutch replaced in my vl and now im having problems with the engine, its a stock RB30, Not long ago after a long drive to town during peak hr traffic i tried to take off fast and the revs wouldnt go over 3k rev. so dove it home very slowly eventually made it home. ever since then, i try to drive it very slowly, not to get the revs up high, but still after a 15 min drive it starts to do it agian wont rev over a certin amount of revs, and when i turn off the engine, it wont start and have to wait around 30-45 mins for it to cool down and drive it back home still reving only up to 2-3k revs, Before the 30 or so mins the car drives fine reving up to red 5-6k im goin to do a ECU diagnostic soon to see it its the AFM or something else but if any one had the same problem or thinks they know whats worng it, would be a great help, dont want to put a new clutch to waste lol Cheers

borrowed a AFM form a mates still have the problem, if it was the AFM the problem would be from the start but this happens when the engine it hot, i cheaked it out 2day and saw very minimal (looked like coolant) leak from the bottom of the engine near gear box, like 2 drops and stoped once the enigine turned off
