Clutch problems
Hi!
Since the day i bought my car i have clutch problems.
A short history:
After a few rides with it transmission was grinding when going in the reverse.
Was changing the slave cylinder and the fluid.
After a short while same again...changing fluid, new master and new slave cylinder.
One year and a few miles later...same problem...replaced the slave cylinder, was
making a special bracket for it where the alignment is better and changed the master from
7/8 to 1" with the 1" was doing this to have enough piston travel to adjust the rod at the slave cylinder.
(No pressure on the thru out bearing and enough travel to switch in reverse without grinding)
Even with the 1" Master and the pedal at the hole with the most travel my clutch pedal is 1 inch over the other
pedals. Was a short while ok but then i had the same problems...ok next fluid change and installing
a heat shield at the clutch and brake lines. Was working again but sometimes when i stopped the car
and shut off the engine i needed more force to get out of the first gear (with clutch fully depressed)
Was a feeling like the clutch would not fully disengage.
When driving again all gears works fine and smooth. Now since a short time i have a strange sound
at 2.000rpm and above...when depressing the clutch the noise is away.
When the engine is hot sometimes the clutch slave cylinder travels himself about 1" for and back???!!
When shutting off the engine the fork is at back position and no chance to move the clutch fork by hand
to the front...so nothing is loose.
What can i do or where can be the problem? (of course will change the fluid again...as allways)
