Hi,
Installed new clutch disc, to bearing, pressure plate and resurfaced flywheel. All went together fine and all gears can be engaged with no issues. I did notice when clutch is disengaged at a stop the engine idle drops 200 -300 RPM then fluctuates back to idle RPM and back down. In neutral with engine running and no clutch disengagement the idle does not fluctuate. The only change that was made was the original clutch disc had 4 spring and the new disc has 6. The crank end play was measured at .003 inch with the 3 existing shims. Is this rpm drop / fluctuation normal? |

Sounds like the clutch cable and throttle cable are twisted. I had an issue on mine, if the throttle cable was too tight, the same thing would happen. The clutch cable clevis was rubbing on the throttle cable. If I slightly loosened the throttle cable, the problem went away.

Also double-check your transmission ground strap.
