Clutch

[Geoff]

Gday again I am at a loss again, this time its the clutch.

It is actuating about 2 inches from the floor it feels way to low. It has been doing this since I bought it.

I replaced the slave cylinder the old one had worn on an angle and piston was snagging every so often leaving me with no clutch at all.

I pulled the master cylinder gave it a hone cleaned it up and put it back in.

It is still to close to the floor. I have set the adjustments as per the manual and I am still at a loss. Please help me.

I don't mean to make you sound stupid or anything which I'm not but did you give it a good bleed

[Redwarf]

What type of car is it in, with which engine??

[Geoff]

You didn't make me sound stupid It has been bled.

It is a 88 ae82 single cam (4m I think)

[Trev]

ok, just that when i got my twinky it was really spongy and it didnt feel like it was there so i gave it a good pump up and got the missus to help me bleed it works good now

[Geoff]

Cheers Trev

[Trev]

No prob

[zmit]

i've got the same problem as well, i bled it but havent replaced any cylinders (sounds like u just save me a lot of trouble if it doesnt make any difference)

 

a few people think that its a new clutch as i havent had it for that long and I'm not sure whether the clutch has been replaced recently.

 

thats a possibility, but if it clearly isnt, then post it up :y: id like to know as well

[Geoff]

I have adjusted the pushrod and removed more of the freeplay and this has fixed it.

[Trev]

Good stuff mate

[love ke70]

yeah, uve done it now, but its what i would have said.

the manual tells you how to set it up, but just play with this until you get it how you want it :P
