You rock, been bugging me for a year.

Eghhhh....got the measurements on the my clutch push rod last night, but they're out in the car. I can get them today.

Sorry to keep you waiting, Allan.

The FSM is handy thing.

Sounds like your slave cylinder is stuck or the clutch fork was not adjusted right when the trans/clutch was put together.

thook

Clutch fork adjustment?

Allan,
The measurements from the rubber boot to the rod adjuster is 1 7/8" with 1/2" of exposed threading. I don't know if that's going to make any difference as Flash319 has a point.

You should title the video "The Blair Clutch Project"...

It's really hard to tell anything from the video. It is dark. Your motor sounds great, though!

Seriously....
Is the pedal height 6" or 2 1/4"? I'm a little confused over the first post on this page and the last one on the first. I'm assuming you meant the release point is 2 1/4"?

Regardless, the pedal being hard to move or not moving could mean two things. Either the push rod is not going in far enough or not at all (i.e. the MC is sticking) or the SC is not moving far enough or sticking.

You sure you installed the clutch pressure plate right? The release bearing?

thook

Or did you mean the push rod length is 2 1/4"?

just a 22re

no the throw from free rolling truck to full grabing clutch is only 2 and a half inches the clutch is fine was real nice with old master and slave put new ones on and all hell broke out and i think one of them are sticking or my buddy said there might still be air in it some where is that true?

thook

Oh hell yes. If there's air in the line, it doesn't push the slave cylinder out all the way...and, consequently, the clutch fork/release bearing. That would esth'plain it.... Check it out.

Incidentally, the air is one of the things mentioned in the troubleshooting. guide.

so you think air in the lines or something will have me nave a very very high pedal and im just waiting for youtube to load my video and i got a new one for you all it done in thre day so its clear and everything

just a 22re

We need to get on the same page with terminology, I think...

High pedal? Do you mean "pedal height" from the floor or clutch "engagement point"?

I have to go take care of some things. Let me study the video (much better, btw) and reveiw the thread, but I'm thinking you just need to play with the pedal height adjustment or bleed the system again....if there's air, that is.

Later, skater...

thook

Okay....just took me a second to think about it. It "appears" to me that you're dealing with thing same I did. As I said originally, I had to adjust the pedal height at the adjuster. Bleed your line again. If that doesn't help, play with the adjustment. If that doesn't help, you need to study the push rod.

You never said if you still had your old MC. Do you?

just a 22re

yes i still have both the old master and slave yet

just a 22re

should i put the old slave back in and see if that will help out any??? cause i think the new one is sticking not letting the clutch to go all the way (full grab)

just a 22re

ok its fixed i think now i rebleed it and well my finger slipped(hold thumb over hole with bleeder open when pumping an old techs trick) and sucked in a little air she golden now starts to ingage about 2.5 inches from floor and goes al the way to about 1 inch from the top perfect!!!!!!

thook

Way cool. Glad you got it, Allan. Now you're going to be really bored. Nothin' else to do...hahaha!

Well, except take more pics...lol.

just a 22re
