Based on what I have studied I seem to think this is not right,new pressure plate/disk,new cable,rebuilt pedal assembly etc ,etc and unknown flywheel in good condition,thinking it has been heavily machined,pedal adjustment is by the book...my idea is the lever is hitting the trans case when pedal fully down...help please before I pull the g/box again.
TIA guys. P.S.clutch cable tube is fine. |

Cut a board to fit sideways in front of the seat to protect the seat. Cut a board to push against the clutch pedal and the other board to hold the pedal down.
Or Pack around the clutch release fork with clay Push pedal Go measure clay You should feel it hit the tranny case at the back if the condition you believe actually exists. |

Thanks but no need ,confirmed the lever was hitting....too much "lost motion" on the arm besides. How the hell do I remove the pivot ball, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) who was the moron that designed that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . |

You can put a shim under the shift ball bushing in the shift arm.

Mark thanks got the jist of removing it ...just venting cause I wanted to refit it and had the time. Not sure about the size of the hex on it ? looks like 14mm ,anyway will overcome this issue. Decided this morning not to rush it cause will do a few job's "while I'am in there",will replace rear engine tin seal and fix a few other minor issues, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) . |
