I got my 914 back from the guy today. Bought pelicans full kit minus flywheel.
300 to replace the clutch plus 65 to machine the flywheel. I couldn’t even drive the son of a bitch because I'm not used to it. That and/or the clutch pedal now is resting about an inch and a half from full top where it was and the release point is ON the floor. Think I'll have him readjust that. I can't leave a stop without nearly stalling it or leaving rubber Clutch pedal is also softer... strange or just feels that way because too much play in the pedal's initial travel? easy to adjust or have them do it.. also he said a plastic cup on the shifter was broken? Shifts fine though? what cup? held in with a allen head? Nic |

I can pull it about an inch or a little more toward me... and it has more than a fingertips worth of free travel...
i guess i should do this vs taking it back to the shop... it could take many times for them to get it right for me... but if i do that myself... i know it will take once (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) and for 300 who is complaining, right? Thanks guys... I'll check it out this weekend. Front adjustment that is... bushings? or whatever it is, he ordered and I'll pick it up from him soon to see exactly what it was. |
