NEW Clutch not Engaging...Money Pit

Spaghetti999 · 08-25-2024, 07:28 PM

This has become a $7k money pit. I am thinking I am done with this platform.

I adjusted the master cylinder rod found in the firewall that connects to the pedal. I lessened the length of it and guess WHAT

The intensity of the vibrations have dramatically decreased by 80%. They used to be present at 3k+ rpm shifts, now I can rev up to 3200-3300rpm without vibrations.

Problem is...they are still present!!!!!!!!!

We are onto something though. This has lessened the throw/travel I believe. How can i further decrease the throw and travel even more?

The new OEM pressure plate does not have this ring on the $400 one but on the $1200 one it does. So if you are just going to cut it off, well.....
