I have rebuilt my 2.0L and am down to mating trans to motor. When I did this I noticed I have no free play in the t/o bearing arm. I have measured and does not appear to be pressing the pressure plate fingers but is on them. Is that acceptable? I expected to have some level of free movement in the arm. Is there something else I can check? Flywheel, clutch disc, pressure plate and Throwout bearing are all new. Crank, flywheel and pressure plate was balanced at machine shop. Except for the flywheel that was completely shot all measurements on new parts

I had 6 vw bugs and a van before I got my 914. When I first went to adjust my clutch I did it like I would my VW's, a little play in the pedal. Wouldn't disengage, nothing but grinding. So I adjusted it more, and more and with the cable taunt where the throw out bearing was pressed into the fingers of the clutch plate it shifted. I may be wrong, but close is not a problem. Like mentioned add a washer under the pivot, I've read that before here.
