If you look at the spring fingers in this pic they are badly worn, wear here is one of the things you look for when inspecting your pressure plate. On the shoe of the PP you don't want to see groves or hot spots. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-11542-1524366404_thumb.jpg) The springs broke likely because they were hitting the flywheel/crank bolts, often you have to grind the tops down on the bolts for clearance, plus a bit for disc wear. Especially important check if the flywheel is reground. Grinding the bolts doesn't hurt the strength, you can only go so far as you still need to get a socket on them. |
