Last year when I was adjusting my clutch I got to a point where the clutch pedal was engaging at the right spot but if I pushed it any further it would get REALLY easy as if I went past the center point of the clutch springs. When I let it out it engages OK but I always have this feeling that I am going to run out of disk soon.
I got a new disk and was getting ready to put it in. I pulled the tranny this AM and took the clutch apart. I took the old one out and found it was almost as thick as the new one. New one .380" - 9.60mm old one .375" - 9.45mm. Now I measured the depth of my flywheel from the plain where the clutch assemby bolts on (shoulder) to the running surface of the flywheel. The one on the car .940". The spare I have .890" - .050" difference. Then I measured the clutch assemblies pressure plate thickness. .380" - .388" and .390". Then I measured the clutch assemblies from the bolt mating surface to the pressure surface. .670" - .650" and .665". All the clutch parts look in good shape. The only wear is on the one I took off the car, the springs are slightly worn where the pilot bearing rides on it. Now I am going over to my shop to measure the flywheel on my torn apart project car. Anyone have any numbers on the topic that can help? I want to add, I did both clutch tube repairs 2 years ago so I am not getting cable stretch in the tunnel. Thanks |
