Did you install the small return spring on the passenger side of the throw-out bearing carriage......between the xmission front cover and the carriage? _________________ Jim

The spring is in there. With the clevis adjusted up as much as possible I have a pinkie fingers width between the throwout bearing face and the fingers of the clutch--I do not know what moved!! |

So are you saying after you've depressed the clutch pedal it's 1.25" of free travel you still have this much space between the front of the release bearing and the clutch release arms?
Did you have the machinist reface your flywheel......and did he happen to mention how much he took off? _________________ Jim

This summer, when I was 60 miles from home, I haad a similaar problem. It turned out (after dropping the tranny to no avail) that that one of the levers on the control tube had broken its weld and had rotated on the shaft. Very hard to detect, but easy to fix. Was this your problem? |
