About to reinstall engine and the original flywheel was
cut 0.025". The as found spacer washer under the clutch fork pivot ball is 0.060" thick. This 0.060" thickness was also found on 2 other 914 transmission we have, so we are assuming this was the standard factory washer thickness used with a new uncut flywheel. Searching seems to indicate that an additional washer of 0.025" needs to be added to the 0.060" washer under the pivot ball to maintain the geometry. Can we get confirmation that this is correct. If not then what if anything is to be done to compensate for the flywheel being cut? Also have others found the original washer was indeed 0.060" Thanks jjs3rd914 |

I found with my clutch adjusted I got gear clash some times ,found clutch release arm had been hitting the gearbox case,pulled the box and modified a cheap socket to undo the ball pivot,fitted a 1mm washer and that sorted it,found flywheel had been resurfaced but still up to spec .
Didn't fix the other issue my gearbox has (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . |
