Changing the diff fluids suxs

Just a short rant changed the front and rear diff fluids and tranny fluids.. man the damn fluid pump I bought from harbor freight like popped while I was pumping it shot gear oil into my hair and pretty much everywhere else..and the ATF fluid for the other part of the diff smelled like cat pee yuck... But its done and im sure my evo is all the happier for it!

Damn. I've had those moments. I bought a pump from Harbor to. Ended up taking the car in for the pump extended warranty. Had them change the fluid while it was there. Charged me about $40 (did the trans myself). I figured wth, why not.

Do you think draining my transmission fluid in my 5 speed would help my problem if I’m sitting at a red light and I have the clutch to the floor and it’s in first gear my engine kind of shutters a little bit but does not grind going into any gear or anything just need so advice
