With the exception of the firewall bushing (replaced that with a CFR spherical), we replaced all the plastic bushings with bronze ones. Maybe THOMAS made the ones I have? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) And exactly what do the shift linkage bushings have to do with the clutch? The Cap'n |

IIRC, he machined pivot bushings for the release arm too.

I have no idea, I got frustrated yesterday and called Tony for the 100th time. He just came over my house with a trailer and took it. I gave him free Beer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

I had where the roll pin goes through the clutch leg, from there on out is where it snapped off. I think it has been partially cracked for some time and just finally retired. Hoping to have the clutch shaft replaced this week.

I just trolled through this thread for the 1st time, and I'm going to say you've got the same problem that partwerks describes. Gordon Luy of Canada, and Glenn Stazak had this problem at the Branson 914 event in '97.

Suprised joe has not chimed in yet.
Yep, roll pin sheared. Best possible issue I think. |

If its not the clutch tube or the clutch cable, check to see if you've sheared the roll pin at the pedal where it attaches to the shaft in the pedal cluster. POST # 5 WINS IT !!!!!!! Nice Job Chris (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) the pin was sheered.

It has been 2 weeks since new pin installed. Clutch was adjusted with some play and the pedal came up 1/2 way or less to catch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Today, I noticed first grinded a bit, then just now @ lunch I hopped in and it grinded again pretty good, pedal seemed to have a tiny bit more play, so I gave the nut about 4 turns and it is perfect again. I think my 914 is giving me an anxiety problem (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dead horse.gif) |

If the clutch cable is new, it may just be stretching a little. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Keep an eye on it to make sure |
