Well, we got everything changed and back together.
I crank the car up and it just grinds when trying to shift. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Heres what I know... we didn't remove the flywheel/crankshaft seal so the shims were not messed with I used the rebuilt flywheel (although it looked awefully clean) so I thought we might have to do the shims but didn't think we would be able to do it with what we had available.. I've adjusted the cable at the release fork as much as it can, the pedal feels very tight, and the end of the fork hits the transmision case. I've read about shimming the ball in the bell housing of the tranny, but how? is that what we should do next, or go in and get the shims behind the flywheel in spec? we shifted the transmission while trying to get it back on the engine, whould that have thrown something off? not sure what to do next? |

Best advice i can give is that you should measure the thickness of the new plate compared to the old one. sounds like you can't dissengage this new friction plate well enough to change gears. either their is less throw at the throwout bearing/ arm assembly or your disc is incorrect and is just to plain thick to dissengage properly no matter what the adjustment is.

Should I try with the old disc, and new pressure plate. or maybe old pressure plate and new disc? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
