DearmanKE Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 hi everyone i have a ke70 that ive had for about a month now, has stock motor, clutch,gbox n such anyways just now got abit bored so went for a quick trash at a local dirt road, a couple of handbrake clutch dumps here n there and then my clutch suddenly felt wak, it was very loose to press, and would crunch on alot of gearchanges unless the revs were match perfectly so i headed home, on the way i decided i was angry at it so i gave it a good kick on one corner now the losseness is gone and it feels ok again, but it still crunches on gear changes, especially changeing down and its not slipping its just like...crunching? so what have i f@$ked? and what do i need to do to fix it? thanks in advance -Alex Quote
dfunkt Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 clutch cable adjustment c-clip?? Quote
dfunkt Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 where the clutch cable goes thru the firewall, there's a metal section about 2cms long with grooves in it. a c-clip should go onto that, effectively adjusting the tension the clutch cable is under. This pic show's the c-clip and metal piece Quote
love ke70 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 he may be onto it, just sounds like your clutch isnt pulling the plate apart properly, so try adjusting it. and wtf is a handbrake clutch dump? Quote

KE70-from-mt-panorama Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) You say you were giving it a thrashing...So more than likely the clutch just got excessively hot, so wasnt engaging when you put your foot on the clutch hence crunching in gearbox. Then as you got futher back it had cooled off so when you went to use it it was good again. Hope this is somehow helpful. Jake EDIT: Just re-read first post and you say its still crunching, could also be excessively worn from the thrashing. Dunno. Not as sure about it now.
