how to take out a slave cylinder in a 5 speed tranny
I have bleed the clutch for more than 30 minutes for 2 days straight, but it is not working. If bleeding the clutch isn't working, what else can be done?
Are they any break downs of straight shift 5 speed I could look at. Befor I take mine apart?
Last weekend I put in one of your SB Clutches MU 13-1.25 ConO. My question is, When I let out on the clutch in first gear or second gear the truck shimmies before it starts rolling. I have ~750 stop and go miles on the new clutch and it is not slipping under torque....Sweet. Will the shimming decrease in time? Thanks in advance, Lloyd Baird
Ilose hydraulic pressure @ pedal, clutch plate seems to have a lot of "meat" left, I pump pedal and get it back. Checked master cylinder and doesn't seem to be any loss of fluid. Any ideas on what may be the problem?
Bruce,
Yes, replace your hydraulics.
Peter
kimmi,
Sorry, that is not our field of expertise.
Peter
Bob Hammer,
Your truck should be a hydraulic actuated not a cable actuated.
Peter
Leo,
Pump the pedal rapidly approx. 25 times or more holding in on the pedal with the last pump, crack the bleeder to allow air to escape. Close the bleeder and repeat as needed.
Peter
otis,
I would recommend buying a PB 50 F brass bushing and a PB 50 P needle bearing then bore the brass bushing to press fit the needle bearing. This should give you the correct inside/outside diameter.
Peter
Mark,
Your master cylinder is mounted to the firewall and there will be a reservoir with a cap. Try following the line from the bell housing up to better locate.
Peter
Jimmy Jones,
I would recommend our MU 13-1.25 Con O or OFE depending on your horse power. Feel free to call us with further questions.
Peter
john,
Pump the pedal and crack the bleeder or take it to a garage with a power bleeder.
Peter
Tara,
The bleeder will be protruding out of the bell housing. You have an internal slave assembly. It will be right next to where the line enters the bell housing.
Peter
Kent Miller,
I believe you have a modular style of clutch which can be a little salty in price. Clutch parts, depending on your area, may run around $300-400 and the labor will run approx. the same.
Peter
Paul Smith,
I would recommend going to your local library for the installation procedure.
Peter
Joe Miller,
Check to make sure you did not damage the pilot bearing and that it is the CORRECT pilot bearing. Bearings can be funny so check you ID of the pilot and OD of the shaft.
Peter
Vickie Ramirez,
No, there is no adjustments, but it is standard policy to replace the hydraulics when replacing the clutch.
Peter
Robert,
These clutch systems are not adjustable.
Peter
barry jones,
No, it cannot be adjusted.
Peter
hburback,
I'm sorry, we do not have printouts for each and every vehicle for clutch installations. To replace the bearing you simply remove the transmission and your clutch system is inside. Remove and replace bearing. If I were going to go that far I would definitely replace the entire clutch system not just the throw-out bearing.
Peter
jesse,
Take it to a garage and have them replace it.
Peter
Jake,
The slave cylinder is internal, you must remove the transmission.
Peter
Larry,
Replace the slave and master, get one from the dealer that is pre-assembled.
Peter
Larry Henegar,
Sorry, I don't have anything like that, try your local library.
Peter
Lloyd,
Yes, unless the pp got tweaked a little on install it should definitely go away with time. Try driving the truck a little more aggressively to help seat it.
Peter
Steve,
I'm sure you're drawing a little air in from somewhere, I would recommend replacing the hydraulics.
Peter
About a year ago I had a mechanic replace my clutch, throwout bearing and pressure plate. Now the clutch does not seem to disengage unless I almost stand on the clutch pedal. Is there a way adjust the clutch so the pedal will disengage in a higher position or do I have another problem. How do I fix this?
does the '93 Protege clutch have an adjustment?

i put the truck in to gear and it feels like the clutch is not all the way out and the clucth only has 16000 miles on it what can i do
The car starts but when trying to put into gear it does nothing , it catches when not running, can this be fixed by adjusting the clutch or something else? How do i adjust the clutch if it can be adjusted????
hydralic clutch,keep bleedind it but in morning loose clutch,also as driving the faster i go the lower the clutch drops.please help
Have a standard transmission with manual clutch. The clutch seems to engage at the top of the pedal. I have 49000 miles of which is mostly city driving (stop and go). How do I determine if I need a clutch adjustment or it needs replacement. Is this something that can be done only by a auto mechanic or can a person with some mechanical skills do the work? Thanks, Joe
I have owned this truck for about 7 months now and am replacing the plastic clutch master cylinder for the third time because they keep cracking close to where the line fitting is. I am told this is a design problem but is there something else? The pedal resistance is firm but not overly so. Please help.

I'm looking for someone to replace the clutch material on my six puck aftermarket clutch disk.
My clutch remains partially engaged. I was shifting from 2nd to 3rd and after I disengaged from 2nd it would not engage to third. With the vehicle off, I can put it in gear. When I start the vehicle with the cluth pedal fully depressed, it still remains partially engaged and will not re-engage gears
my clutch does not seem to fully disengage. yesterday it was fine today ???? truck has only 14,000 easy miles. Fluid level is fine.
Johnny,
It could be a number of things, pilot bearing, hydraulics, or firewall deterioration.
Peter
Brian,
No, it does not.
Peter
Dan,
Did you replace the clutch fork when you did the job?
Peter
Warren,
You can try to adjust the clutch at the firewall but if it is slipping that bad then it's time for a new clutch. Make sure to check the clutch fork while you're in there.
Peter
Jim,
You need to replace the hydraulic system.
Peter
Joe Caezza,
With hydraulic clutch systems the closer the top to the pedal the clutch engages or disengages is a sign of being worn. There is no adjustment so once you reach the top it is time to replace the clutch.
Peter
Justin,
The first thing I would do is find out if the clutch was replaced. If it was it is possible that the bearing was installed incorrectly on the clutch fork. this would cause undo resistance. Other then that it is possible that the master cylinder is building pressure and blowing the slave. The next time you do the job replace the master and the slave at the same time.
Peter
ozzie,
If it is an adjustable pressure plate you do it on the clutch itself. Have someone push in on the clutch pedal to release the clutch then, depending on the style of clutch you have, you will need to rotate the ring clockwise until the clutch is adjusted. If you would like a little clearer answer refer to our semi-truck catalog portion of our webpage and there is an adjustment section.
Peter
Mike,
Call a transmission shop.
Peter
Mark A Nolf,
Sorry about that, the flywheel should be bored to 1.380" + or - .001".
Peter
Horacio,
Well you found the right place! LOL We have many different materials so feel free to call us at our toll free number and ask for Eddie.
Peter
Mike Ramsey,
You either have a problem with the clutch itself or the clutch cable.
Peter
Ross,
Even with the fluid level fine it could still be the hydraulics. I would take it back to the dealer.
Peter
replaced t5 trans with world class t5 didnt remove bellhousing but now clutch feels different and pedal is higher it still works fine just feels different is there any way i can lower the pedal where it was??? thanks

How do I adjust the clutch pedal on a 99 ford mustang with a 3.8l v6
my honda starts fine but wont move at all
Kaleb,
I would always recommend changing both the master and the slave. As to how to do it, start with the master cylinder and work your way down to the slave cylinder. Put it back on how you take it off. If you need pictures you might try your local library.
Peter
T. Mobley,
I would recommend replacing the master and slave. It sounds like you have a leak somewhere that is allowing air to draw in.
Peter
FREDDIE PASOQUEN,
This only a guess, but I would say that you replaced the bearing and slave assembly. With your year truck the replacement assembly comes as a whole unit, meaning the bearing is full length. When you removed the old slave you did not remove the piston that makes it a 2 piece. Now you are collapsing the clutch assembly. You need to get back into the trans and remove the little piston that is left.
Peter
Christa,
If it's an older cable actuated toyota then it is adjustable where it passes through the firewall. If it is a newer truck then it is most likely hydraulic and not adjustable.
Peter
Becca,
If you are going to replace the slave assembly just cut it or break it. However it is internal so you need to remove the transmission to remove it.
Peter
Brandon Davidson,
At that horse power level I would think the Rally clutch would be suitable for your application.
Peter
Luis,
There is a ratchet system on the clutch itself, to reset you must pull up on the clutch pedal. If that does not work, you will need to replace the system.
Peter
Brandy Lane,
If you have a manual transmission it sounds like your clutch has met it's life. Replace the clutch and you should be fine.
Peter
Is there a clutch free play ajustment on the Ford f150? If so how is it ajusted? thanks for the help

Michael
If the clutch pedal feels normal and you can shift into gear but the car does not move forward then I would guess the clutch has reached its life.
Peter
ben
If it is an internal slave it will take removing the bell housing and will take a good 4 to 5 hours. You should replace the clutch while you are in there.
Peter
tony
Sorry I can not help you on that.
Peter
Gordy
No, there is not. You have a hydraulic system that is non-adjustable.
Peter
my 94 ford ranger has a problem, it shifts fine but in every gear but the problem is the rpm's go up before it seems to catch and go....if i am on the interstate and start to go up a little hill again it willl wind up the rpms a little b-4 it catches. a friend of mine tells me it is the clutch going out. the truck has 140,000 miles on the original clutch. sound like the clutch or tranny?....please respond
my clutch started slipping couple months back and recently gave up completly not alloing any gears to be engaged I decided to replace the pressure plae disk and throw out bearing. now that the new components have been installed and the car back together the clutch still seems not to engage. when i pree the clutch down i hear a whining noise and am not able to get into gears, iver checked all the linkage and everything seems ok please let me know what you think i should check to try figure out the problem...thanks
how to tell whether the master or the slave cyl is bad
My question is which way does the spring mount on the mushroom for the release fork? Mine came off when attempting to replace release bearing. I sure could use a picture or illustration-there is no picture in the Ford manual.
Thanks
The car absolutly will not go into gear! what is wrong, is it the clutch or the pressure plate?
Mike Atkins,
It is definitely a clutch issue. Replace the clutch.
Peter
Kel Lang,
If it is not the clutch fork that is the issue and you are hearing a whining noise I would think that your transmission has issues. Take it to a tranny shop and have the transmission looked at.
Peter
Derick White,
If you are unable to get your transmission into gear without grinding this is an indicator that the hydraulics are weak, also, if there is a pedal change in strength, meaning getting weaker.
Peter
Paul Peters,
Not quite sure what spring you're talking about, there is however, a plastic pin that goes through the fork into the hole in the side of the throw-out bearing flange. This holds the bearing to the fork for return purpose.
Peter
Kelly,
It could be the clutch disc or the pressure plate or the cable. I would start on the outside and work my way in.
Peter
Does pushing the clutch in and coasting to a stop in gear horrible for your manual truck?
Hello. I just got a new clutch kit from SLP Performance parts. Including Steel billet flywheel, clutch plate, pressure plate.. I also replaced the slave and master cylinder with a kit from GM... The clutch doesn't disengage fully making it hard to get into gear. I have to shut the car off to get into reverse without grinding. When driving, the car shifts fine, however, shifting is still a little rough... also, at idle when in neutral with the clutch engaged, there is a pretty good pulse coming up into the pedal.... And sometimes when I take off from a stop the clutch really chatters... I've done this type of work before, and had an experienced friends help as well. Bottom line is, the thing is awful... The clutch doesn't slip or anything, just shifting problems, the chatter from take off, and the pulsing pedal, and pedal vibration all around.... PLEASE HELP! I know that I have to take the thing apart again, but I would like to know what I'm looking for... I have a few ideas, but I was just looking for some further help.... By the way... ALL parts were cleaned very well before installation.
Thank you very much for any help you can offer.
Is there any defining symptom to distinguish a slipping clutch from failing master or slave cylinder?
how to adjust the clutch
I have a Chevy 2002 3500 dually with a 6 speed and pulla fifth wheel travel trailer. Had a new cluthc installed by dealership in Florida 1100 miles ago but it will not hold to park trailer in reverse slips like crazy almost burned it out parking it in slightly inclined drive way when I got home. Do you have anything that would help with this slippage of the clutch? I cannot afford to trade trucks for diesel auto. Thanks Jim
my clutch goes to the floor with no resistance, which means I can't get it into gear. I bled it but only got worse, before I bled it I could just barely get it into gear. New clutch intalled last Oct. Any ideas?

I Just put your 13 1.25 con ofe in my dodge. After the finishing up and starting the truck , it wouldnt go in gear. So i turned the truck off and placed it in gear and started it, It pulled against it self and slipped the clutch then because the truck wasnt warm killed the truck. I never let the clutch out though. Ive checked all the master and slave cyl. and they all seem fine. Im sure i put the throwout bearing in correctly. Is this because the pres. Plate is to tight? What should i do? Thanks
I was having trouble getting my truck into gear when it was running. Then the other day as i was heading home, i had the truck in gear and was driving when all of a sudden it wouldn't drive anymore, I had thought maybe the slave cylinder was going out when I couldn't get it into gear, but now I have no idea what's wrong.

After stopping the car it refuses to go into any gear unless shut off first. Once running everything is smooth and shifts easily untill stopped. I can feel the clutch pressure at 1/4 pedal and can find no leaks. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

can i adjust the hydralic clutch on my saturn
On average, since i replaced the engine in my probe with a newer used engine that had allegedly 50,000 miles on it, my car has been burning about a quart of oil per gas tank. There are no leaks of any sort in the engine, could the valve seals be the problem?
Rocco Torres,
If it is a push type, meaning throw-out bearing is separate from the pressure plate, then you have the bearing installed on the fork, I would also check to make sure the fingers on the pressure plate are even where the bearing rides. If it is a pull type, meaning the bearing is connected to the pressure plate fingers, then I would check to make sure that the bearing is clipped into the fingers correctly.
Peter
Pete,
Failing master or slave cylinder will cause problems with disengagement on clutch whereas a worn out clutch does not have a problem with disengagement but slips when accelerated.
Peter
Bob,
It is a hydraulic clutch and is not adjustable.
Peter
Jim,
Yes, we have different styles of clutch discs that will increase the torque capacity of the clutch itself, feel free to give us a call.
Peter
Robin,
Yes, your hydraulics are bad.
Peter
Mickey Trussell,
Try raising the back tires slightly off the ground making sure the vehicle is in gear and the tires are spinning. Then quickly drop the jack to try and pop the disc loose. In the future, when parking you vehicle or equipment for a period of time it is always wise to take a piece of wood and block the clutch pedal down in a release position, this will alleviate any adhering in the winter months.
Peter
Lucas,
I don't believe the pressure plate is too tight and if they hydraulics are functioning properly I would be afraid that the pressure plate is not bolted down correctly. Feel free to call me on this matter.
Peter
Kyle Wilcoxson,
It sounds like your clutch disc has disintegrated. My suggestion would be to replace the whole clutch assembly.
Peter
Troy,
Sounds like your pilot bearing is failing. It will require you to back the transmission out and inspect the clutch thoroughly.
Peter
Jon,
No, there isn't. The only thing you can do is drive the vehicle moderately.
Peter
Chad,
You will need to ask a transmission shop this question.
Peter
Peter Deane,
Yes, I would remove the clutch and inspect for any broken or worn parts. I would also have the transmission inspected.
Peter
chryllewis,
No, you can't.
Peter
Chad,
That could be very possible but I would talk to an engine specialist on this matter.
Peter
dj,
There should be a bleeder on the slave cylinder.
Peter
do you have a lightened flywheel to go with the mu1947con fe clutch
I have the MU 13-1.25 Con OFE clutch in my 99 3500 Dodge. The clutch has been in service since June 2002 and I have about 60,000 miles on it. I am getting a slight chatter at take off but my biggest issue is in backing up with a trailer the chatter is terrible. (to the point where I have to stop and start again to get it to stop) What can I do short of pulling the clutch and refacing the flywheel and replacing the clutch and pressure plate?
Thanks
Dave
no clutch pressure can shift to any gear while engine is running nothing happens.could it be clutch is bad or hydraulic cylinder no gear engages any ideas would be helpful thanks tom
Does the top of the transmission need to be removed before we can drop the trans to get to the clutch?
how can i tell if i need a new clutch ! is there any thing i can do ! or if it getting thin !its a hydrolic clutch and its self adjusting is there any simple way to find out please help me
I am still having trouble with my Con OFE that I installed when I converted my '98 to an NV5600. It is very hard to get the trany into first and reverse when at a stand still. It is the worst when hot. The friction point is at mid pedal if not past the middle some. I have driven this thing like this for over 19k miles and it has not improved at all. If I depress the clutch and hold the shifter up against 1st it will try to move forward and then if I keep forcing it, it will drop in. I have gotten used to just grabbing 2nd and then into first. I replaced the hydraulics after talking with Peter some time back even thought I figured they were okay just to rule that out and no help at all. I am currently running Amsoil 5w30 HDD right now. I have also run the factory oil with no difference at all. I did this same conversion to my uncle's '98 and his works fine. My cousin also has a Con OFE in his '97 with NV5600 and it too works just fine. Other then being hard to get into gear the clutch seems to work fine and is not overly rough or chattery for a performance clutch. I bought this clutch from you in January of '03. Do you have any ideas of things I might try or look for? I have installed many clutches and never had one act quite like this.
Thanks, Mark
P.S. Don't forget this was a conversion clutch to adapt a 1-3/8" input shaft to a stock 1998 flywheel.
What is the easiest way to remove the flywheel?
HOW DO I BLEED THE THE NEW CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER
fritz minder,
Funny that you ask that, we are having an aluminum flywheel made and we would like to have someone who is willing to put it in and check it out. Please give us a call and we can give you some kind of time frame. If you would like the stock flywheel cut out and lightened we can certainly do that for you.
Peter
Dave,
Try this, I want you to try and deglaze the clutch. Put it in reverse without a load, slightly let off on the clutch pedal until you START to get engagement, holding it there, raise the RPM up, repeat in first gear. What you are trying to do is make the clutch disc scrape the two surfaces without creating heat. This should help smooth the clutch out.
Peter
Tom,
It could be a number of things. If you can shift gears, I doubt it's your hydraulics. It will take getting inside to the clutch to see where the problem really lies.
Peter
Ronny,
No you should not.
Peter
Sean,
The simple way to find out is to start out in 1st and shift into 3rd then give it gas to see if the clutch breaks away. If it is engaging near the top of the pedal then your clutch is pretty much at the end of it's life.
Peter
Mark Seibert,
It can be one of 4 things. 1st the clutch itself, 2nd the pilot bearing was damaged on the install, 3rd the transmission fluid, 4th the hydraulics. If the clutch is engaging where it should be then you can eliminate the hydraulics. You can try changing transmission fluids, short of that it will require getting back into the clutch system for the bearing or clutch.
Peter
Jeremy,
Simply unbolt it from the crank.
Peter
MARK ZICCARDI,
At the slave cylinder.
Peter
We replaced the master and slave cylenders. And now we need to bleed the clutch. However, we cannot figure out how to do that. So my question is...HOW DO I BLEED A CLUTCH FOR A 94 DODGE DAKOTA? Ive been looking for the little valve, but cant find one.
My 87 escort won't disengage the clutch when I push in the clutch pedal?
(continuation from two messages back). We looked at the book, and realized that dodge intended the system to be replaced as one compleat piece (from resovoir to plate). but we had tried to save a bit of money and only replace the parts that needed replacing. so do you have any suggestions on how to cheat it, and get some pressure back into the pipes?
when going from 1st to second it like bucks! if i wind out 1st why does it do that if i go slow it dont buck help me out please
Which clutches do you have that will work in my car, that is for the weekend racer, but also a smooth driver in heavy traffic? Thanx
I have 12000 miles on my truck and dualmass flywheel keep coming out every 3000 miles. Is there a different flywheel I can use like a one piece flywheel.
I have replaced the clutch the master cylinder and the slave cylinder i have bled and bled it and i have no clutch pedaol pressure pleasr tell me what i am doing wrong or what i can do to fix it
my clutch got suck on the floor while I was driving it yesterday , it comes off but it has no pressure what so ever and it gets stuck back on the floor again ... I had a new clutch put in 4 months ago and its under warranty , I just wanted to know what kind of repairs I can be expecting and what happened , and how I can prevent it from happening again
Luna,
It should be on the housing of the slave cylinder, if there is one.
Peter
michael gately,
If the clutch is not disintegrated then I would recommend replacing the clutch cable.
Peter
Luna,
If there is not a bleeder on the slave cylinder itself then you will have to manually bleed it. This process is called bench bleeding. Unhook everything and assemble off the truck. Then support the master cylinder in a vice and physically push in on the rod with the cap off the master cylinder reservoir very slowly, keeping fluid at hand to refill the reservoir when you release the push rod of the slave. Do this at least 3 to 4 times until you see all the air gurgle out of the master cylinder and all that you see is fluid transfer. Put the cap on the reservoir and reinstall the unit as an assembly.
Peter
Sean,
I'm not sure if you are getting clutch chatter or bucking or if it is a lack of fuel problem. This is also an older vehicle so I would check your engine and transmission mounts.
Peter
Jeremy Copeland,
We have many options for this application. Please contact Eddie here at South Bend Clutch and he will guide you to the correct clutch for your application. 800-988-4345.
Peter
Jared,
We are diligently working on a flywheel replacement but it not available at this time.
Peter
Steve,
You either got a defective system from the manufacturer or you still have air in the system. Try pumping the pedal 50 times and on the 50th time hold the pedal down, crack the bleeder and see if you get any spitting. Once fluid starts to run, close the bleeder and let up on the clutch pedal. Do this 2-3 times or until no more air escapes from the bleeder screw. Hope this helps.
Peter
Pete,
I would guess that your hydraulics took a dump so try replacing the master and the slave. If this does not work you will need to get inside to see what is wrong with the clutch and clutch fork.
Peter
truck would sometimes start if you messed with clutch now it wont start at all is there a way to test the clutch switch
My clutch pedel is to the floor and is very soft, is my clutch going out or is the master cylinder bad? Looking for help
how much does this vehicle weigh with no gas in it?
have replaced all hydro and mech parts of this extreamly challanging vehicle ! and still no clutch !! could the push rod from the slave cylinder to the control arm be too short. when i remove the spacer block from between the slave cyl and the bell housing , push the slave cyl completely forward , is the only time i get good clutch action. this one has me baffled.
how do you ajust the clutch and is there a softer pedal possibility
How do i adjust the clutch it's hydrolic
I am looking for a recomendation for a new clutch. Vehicle has a 6.2 non trubo diesel. Occasionally tow a small camper. I want a clutch that holds well, doesnt chatter and doesnt need a popeye leg to push! The easier the effort the better. Current clutch brand unknown- is awful! Push it all the way down- when you let up the diaphram spring shoots the pedal up at you! Not able to slip at all! Anyway- I am interested in your products- can you hook me up??
what are the bleeding instructions for a hydrolic clutch on a '95 saturn SC-2
Car hesitates in accelerating in second gear only...tends to happen when the car isn't warmed up. Could this be clutch related?
Installed new clutch, clutch master. Can cycle through all gears when not running. Truck won't start without grounding the starter selenoid (like the neutral safety is engaged) and once running can't get into any gear. Had problems bleeding the clutch down - replaced everything now have full throwout motion but still wont go into gear when running. Does the neutral safety lock out the tranny somehow and is this the likely problem?
jamie trent,
Not that I know of, other then replacing it.
Peter
Clint Chew,
I would think it would be your master and slave cylinder. Replace those and see if that helps.
Peter
terry,
Look on your driver's door.
Peter
Dave,
We have found that after replacing the clutch with another OE clutch this problem occurs on your type of vehicle. We have opted to switch to the S10 pressure plate and clutch disc to aleviate this problem from happening. Feel free to call us. Peter
wayne filer,
There really is no adjusting the clutch, check the ratchet system under the clutch pedal for damage or wear.

wayne filer,
Also, check the bracket where the cable hooks up under the dash and see if the weld has broken loose. Also, see if your cable runs by the exhaust manifold. Sometimes it helps to wrap it with exhaust tape to protect it from the heat and swelling
Dean Sanchez,
You can't.
Peter
Brian,
Feel free to call me on this.

Emmy Comstock,
All bleeding screws, if there is one, will be located on the slave cylinder. Pump the clutch pedal a minimum of 25 times holding down on the last pump and crack the bleeder. Allow the air to escape and close the bleeder. Repeat as needed.
Peter
beth,
I would not think so.
Peter
Ed,
The switch can go bad and cause those kinds of problems. You should try replacing the switch.
Peter
My Overdrive Off button is constantly going on and off and switching gears..what should be done?Or what problem does this sound like?
Great site! (70k miles, clutch and throwout bearing replaces at 60K) In general the clutch seems to work great (disengages with ~1.5inches depression of pedal, doesn't slip in 2nd or 3rd etc.) However, I cannot easily get into first geat from a stop. If I can get into 2nd (while at stop), I can get back into 1st. Also it seems that fully depressing the clutch - pedal into the firewall helps.
How do I properly bleed the transmission.
I had a clutch, pressure plate, release bearing and slave cylinder rebuild done. The mechanic also had a reconditioned flywheel installed at the time. After getting the truck back, there is a noticeable "vibration" at idle and under load. There was no vibration before the clutch assembly was changed. Also, the main bearing seal was changed. The mechanic changed the flywheel 3 times, and it got better, but did not eliminate the vibration. I need help! Any ideas?
Hi! Peter I bought my truck new. I've had a little clutch or trans. rattle since new at low rpm's. The rattle seem's to be getting worse as time goes on (35,000 miles). I tow up to 15,000 lbs. on a regular basis. I was wondering how strong is the o.e. clutch, how many miles can I expect out of it & is the rattle I hear the center coming apart. Would you recommend your new double disc clutch as a replacement.
Thanks Jerry
Nathan Phillips,
That is not our field of expertise.
Sorry.
Peter
Steve M,
I would suggest replacing your clutch cable if pushing the clutch pedal to the floor helps because this tells me you still have some travel situation.
Peter
Brad Perry,
Not sure I've ever heard of bleeding the transmission. If it's the clutch you're speaking of please read above, you'll find many explanations.
Peter
Dave McGinnis,
I would find out if he is using the proper flywheel for the year truck you have. I have heard of companies using flywheel exchange programs and this has always scared me. I'm a fan of putting back in you vehicle what you took out. If the original flywheel caused vibration after is was machined I would find out how he is doing his machine work. This may be the problem.
Peter
Jerry Turk,
I would definitely not recommend the double disc clutch for your application. The rattle you hear is simply the springs in the clutch disc. It is not hurting anything and the OEM clutch is plenty strong for the stock engines even if you are towing heavy. Of course that depends on the driver. LOL
Peter
I removed my shifter from the manual transmission in another gear than park before i removed the transmission after reinatalling the transmission it will not shift
what is the name of the part that holds the stick shift and the cables that lead to the gear box
I just had a new clutch installed and it started slipping a week later. It seems to do it more when engine is hot but not always. What could be going on with it?
I DID A 5 SPEED SWAP 6,000 MILES AGO. I USED YOUR MU0090 C CLUTCH AS SOLD TO ME BY DIESEL DYNAMICS. NOW I CANNOT SHIFT OUT OF REVERSE WHEN I COME TO STOP AFTER BACKING UP. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE CLUTCH DOESN'T DISENGAGE ALL THE WAY. TO GET THE TRUCK GOING, HOWEVER, I HAVE LET THE PEDAL WAY UP LIKE IT WAS WHEN IT WAS NEW! THE TRUCK MAKES 350 HORSE WHILE TOWING. ALL THE TRUCK IS USED FOR IS TOWING ON WEEKENDS. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP.
my manual clutch releases when the pedal is depressed almost to the floor, are there any adjustments?
this is a good one, its a total mongrel, heres what i have: 60 jeep w/ an 85 corvette hydraulic clutch setup and bellhousing attached to the original t-90 trans, I'm using a stock replacement 10 spline clutch and pressure plate for an 80 v-6 chevy malibu, the throw out bearing, i believe is timken part# 614037 and will fit a 56 chevy or something, i was running a 229 v-6 and just swapped in a 4.3l v-6 which is identical, my problem is my clutch will not release now, i had this problem before when i was originally setting it up before with the 229 and the longer throwout bearing cured it, but all i changed this time was the engine, it is all completely identical to the way it was before, ive already had it apart and found nothing obvious and back together. i bled the slave a few times although it was never touched, it doesnt leak or anything and appears to work properly. ive replaced more engines and clutches than i can count, but this one is messing with me, any ideas would be apprieciated...
I installed a new clutch master cylinder and am having trouble bleeding it I tried to gravity bleed and the pump it 10 times and still do not haveany pedal any sugestions?
when i start my car in the morning i hear like a grinding sound then after like later i will start it leaving work and its gone someone told me its my throwout bearing that it is worn would this cause this wierd noise thanx u 4 your help hopefully u can give me a straight answer!!!
i am installing a muncie 4 speed ,hurst shifter,and a 455 olds motor in my car. it was an automatic. i would like to keep the original type master cylender that came new with my baer brakes,and use the new hydrolic throwout bearing i had installed in my trans.what type of clutch,brake pedal assembly can i use to make it all come together and work properly....thanks.
Was rocking vehicle out of mudhole,smelled slight burning of brake fluid.After stopped,checked clutch master cylinder-empty.Clutch went all way to floor,would not engage gears.Could not shift into reverse with or without clutch depressed but without using clutch could shift into some other gears.Towed home.Put in DOT 3 fluid into master cylinder and jumped under truck to look for leaks.There's two pre-cut 21/2"longx1/4" slots, one below clutch housing,one up on tranny.Fluid ran straight from master cylinder and came out slot below clutch housing.My Haynes manual says one of two things:Bleed clutch line or I've got a warped or damaged clutch plate. Problem on bleeding (and I know how to do that on brakes and clutches)is Haynes says "remove dust cap that fits over bleeder valve before bleeding. I can't find bleeder valve. Is it in that "hole" inside the slot and could I have blown/scraped off the cover by rocking the truck out of the deep mud hole? Because that slot is awful low and it would seem without a cover that any splash of water would get in there. OR is that supposed to be an inspection hole, because there's another uncovered one on the transmission about 6" away but above, not below. I'm I just not finding the bleeder valve is something else wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated because this is my only work truck! Thanks!
My daughters 1993 Probe is making a screech when she goes from 1st to 2nd geers on Up shift and an all Down shifts. I'm tbl. shooting from 150 miles away. I think it is the throwout bearing. What does it take to replace the throwout bearing on a 1993 Probe/Mazda 5 speed?

Clutch pedal all the way to the floor after intense shifting from 1st to reverse while trying to "rock" truck out of deep mudhole.Clutch will not engage at all.Without clutch, can shift into all gears (engine off) except reverse.No hydraulic (brake)fluid in master cylinder, it leaks by gravity straight to where the clutch plate is and out a pre-cut "hole" (looks like an inspection hole because there's another on top,near the trans.Cannot find the bleeder valve or its cap to bleed and check for leaks.Was there a cap over this "inspection" hole as I call it (its 21/2"longx1/4" and there's one right in and below the clutch housing and one on the upper left behind the housing. 2 questions: Where's the slave cylinder, in front, behind firewall or in the clutch housing? If these are inspection holes there precisely cut but the lowest one under the clutch housing is wide open and definately subject to getting water/mud/dirt in there. Was there a cap I may have blown out by excessive pressure or scraped off trying to "rock" out of the mudhole? My Haynes Ranger manual says "the pedal to the floor and won't go into reverse can only be two things: 1)no fluid (all the fluid runs straight out as I indicated) or a warped/damaged clutch plate. Any ideas? Please!!!! P.S. Where in the hell is the slave cylinder so I can check the bleeder valve and cap that goes over it, that's the no. 1 recommendation of the Haynes Ranger Repair Manual
on my car sometimes not all the time the clutch pedels gets stuck to floor and the shifter also gets stuck at same time what could that be? any ideas will help. Thanks
How do i bleed the hydraulic clutch on my 1998 Dodge Ram 1500?
I just changed my slave and master cylinders,but the clutch doesnt engage until im just about to the floor with the pedal.How do i bleed the air out?
same problem as most.. replaced clutch pressure plate and slave cylinder (Dynamax) have been bleeding for 3 days clutch works engages and dis-engages but still won't go in gear well.. it will but have to push real hard or tries to grind going into reverse. have tried MightyVac and bleeding without pressure.. have tried pumping pedal according to Haynes stupid book
and tried just pumping one time hold it and tighten.. seems to show bubbles here and there then i will get a full stream.. think that's good and try it..still nothing..
Frsutrated!..please help!
clutch adjustment
I have the Con OFe with the 13 inch new flywheel combo. I have about 1k miles on the unit now and with a 20k load, reverse bucks so bad it is almost unusable. 1st gear is a little bit the same but not quite as bad. thanks for you time..
Under accelleration my '89 Accord acts like I'm engaging the clutch, the engine rev's but the car slows down. Just had new clutch put in about 4 years ago. Clutch has about 5,000 miles on it. Car has 110,xxx miles.
I have a 5 Speed GT with 12,000 miles. I have started getting shifter shake when coming off the clutch. It is a daily driver, no strip or racing. Any thoughts?
Bought a 13'' con fe from you guys, worked relly good for a while! It has about 8000miles on it. the truck is around 340hp at flywheel. it seemed to be seated very well. But lately it will slipp very easily,but only till it gets hot then you can'y slip it. The petal is right at the top. Truck does tow very often. Just 4wheelin once and while. Haven't tore it apart yet but. If migh be wet ie.tranny or engine seal leak. Does the feramic material rip the ship out of the flywheel. Any info appreciated.
My clutch pedal is stuck to the floor, i have to full it up with my foot, but it doesn't ingage orhave any spring to it, and i can't shift into gears, i can start it though, whats wrong with it? Do i need a new clutch?
I have a Con OFE, 13" clutch that I installed some 60,000 miles ago. Yesterday I noticed that it took increased effort to get the trany into neutural. Today it is next to imposible. I have to shut the engine off and restart in gear. But then the next time I stop everything works normal. The clutch seems to have plenty of grab, dosen't slip. Am I in for a new clutch or is there a simple repair? Can this clutch be rebuilt? If so how long of a down time am I looking at?
installed new clutch disk, pressure plate, throwout bearing, flywheel turned, sealed hydraulic. clutch will not disengage from flywheel. please help. have tried everything. thank you
replaced and bled slave cylinder but trans is still hard to impossible to shift. any comments on clutch fork problems? need help!
I WENT TO START THE TRUCK AND THE STARTER SEEMED LIKE IT WAS REALLY DRAGGING AND WOULD NOT TURN EASILY.SHIFTING GEARS WAS VERY HARD AND WHEN I DID PULL IT INTO REVERSE IT JUMPED BACKWARDS .SEEMS LIKE CLUTCH WILL NOT DISENGAUGE AND PEDAL SEEMS SLIGHTLY STIFFER THAN USUALL.CHECKED MASTER CYCLINDER AND IT WAS A LITTLE OVER HALF FULL.IT LOOKED LIKE WHEN PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED THE SLAVE WAS MOVING .HELP.

I am having trouble removing the transmission in order to replace the clutch....i have loosened all bolts that are attached to the transmission, but it won't seem to come off...what am i doing wrong??
I cant seem to get a good working , lasting cluch in this truck ! Ive tried diaphram type ( listed for a 79 1 ton ) and the regular/heavy duty 3 arm pressure plate type. Which is best suited for my truck ?
My truck has been sitting at the Ford dealership since last Thursday. The clutch is not wanting to engage in the morning after sitting in the garage. I usually have to turn the truck off and restart it a couple of times and then pump the clutch pedal to get it to engage. The dealership has already replaced the master clutch cylinder and for about a week all was fine and then last Thursday morning I could not get it to engage while the truck was running, but it would engage while the truck was off. Any idea as to what is causing this? Do I need to tell them to replace the whole clutch? Or is there more to it?
I was driving and my clutch just went to the floor and would not ingage, it has no catch can't get the car in gear
Pulled back tranny to find two springs from the old clutch disk. I inspected the parts and found that one of the clutch fork clips were broken. Replaced the fork and everything from the T.O bearing to the pilot bearing. Put it all back together. Now when I start the car in nutral it starts and runs, can't put it into any gear. I turn it off, can place it into any gear, but when it's turned on and my foot on the clutch it jumps forward. After replacing all cluch parts I contacted the company I bought the tranny from to see if it could be anything in there and they tell me it's a definite clutch problem. I've also checked the linkage for alignment and have adjusted the clutch pedal. Please help me!
After running car hard (drag racing) clutch pedal will not return all the way up. after a while its fine. it is a hydrolic clutch. thank you
I was told to check the fluid on a clutch that will not allow the vehicle to go in gear. It grinds. I am not sure how to check the fluid or where. If it is out, what do I use? The truck sets for extended perionds of time.

my husband has changed every thing for his clutch along with a new engine and crankshaft postion sensor and has put a flywheel spacer on and it still wont engage unless its off? please help us
My clutch does not grind but it slips when pressing on the accelerator and is gradually getting worse. Will bleeding the line help or do I need a clutch? Any advice would be helpful.
My clutch is slipping. Could bleeding the line help? I followed the line to the brake fluid resevoir, is this common? What is the proper procedure of bleeding this kind of line (if it'll do any good)?
I would like to apologize for the delayed response to your questions but I have been on vacation.
Peter
Keith Hughes,
I would venture to say it is NOT the throw-out bearing, I would think it would be the transmission bearing. A bad bearing would squall every time you pushed it in. If there is only squalling when the clutch is being engaged then it is the transmission bearing.
Peter
Bill Adams,
The slave cylinder is inside the bell housing. This is called an internal slave and cannot be inspected from the outside. The transmission must be removed. There is a bleeder on the bell housing next to where the line goes in. My suggestion would be to replace the clutch while you are in the bell housing.
Peter
JJ,
I would think your problem lies in either the clutch fork or the bearing retainer. You may check the clutch pedal for wear before tapping into the bell-housing.
Peter
armando,
You don't, sorry.
Peter
Tom,
Unfortunately these can be a bummer, the only thing I may suggest is if you have bled and bled and bled, start over, replacing the master and slave as an assembled unit from the dealer.
Peter
Rod Johnson,
Sorry, they're hydraulic.
Peter
Rick Glatt,
Please give me a call on this issue, we will work together to figure this out.
Peter
TATE BURRIS,
It definitely sounds like a worn out clutch to me. It could also be, simply, a bad product depending on where you got the clutch from. I would check to see if you have a warrantee on it.
Peter
Joe Ellis,
I'm not quite understanding shifter shake but if it's chatter or shudder on takeoff that is normally due to a glazed clutch disc.
Peter
Jason Ray,
First, your clutch is under rated for the type of clutch you are using. The FE clutch should only be used from 450 to 550 hp to the ground. This will cause deterioration of the clutch as well as driving issues. Oil can cause damage as well. Feramic does groove the castings but does not rip the ship out of them like the cerametalic does. After you get into it give me a call to see if we can fix you up.
Peter
Jason,
I would think you need to replace the hydraulics.
Peter
steve costanzo,
I would venture to say you have the wrong clutch or installation is incorrect if you replaced everything as you said.
Peter
doug,
It is possible to get the clutch fork installed backwards. This might be your problem. I do not know of any problems with the clutch forks.
Peter
BRIAN,
I would suggest buying a firewall re-enforcement bracket for the master cylinder. You can pick these up at your local dealer.
Peter
bruce,
Try going to the library and get a manual.
Peter
Walter Carpenter,
Trying to diagnose this without being underneath the truck myself is very difficult. I'm going to ask a stupid question, did you remove the shifter tower?
Peter
Big Mike,
It may simply be what clutch you are using, meaning manufacturer. Part stores clutches can be a little weak, both the 3 lever and the diaphragm offer the same plate loads. Clutch material is where it's at. Feel free to give us a call and I think I can help you put a clutch in the truck that will give you good life.
Peter
Lissa Lee,
It may not be the master cylinder but the slave cylinder could be the problem, which is internal. Have your dealer replace it.
Peter
Amy,
Either the clutch disintegrated or your hydraulics/cable has failed.
Peter
Tray,
My guess would be that you installed the bearing and clutch fork improperly. The fork and the clip need to slide into the groove of the bearing together. The wrong way is to slide the back flange of the bearing between the clip and the fork. This will cause a travel and release problem. Back to work LOL
Peter
vic roppa,
This type of unit has a pull style throw-out bearing clutch assembly. The casting in the pressure plate is very thin and tends to warp when heated which causes the to bearing to drop. Once cooled the casting can re-flatten.
Peter
Ray Piper,
I don't believe your truck carries a hydraulic system, it should be a mechanical system. If you are going to leave your truck sit for long periods of time you should wedge a piece of wood between you clutch pedal and seat keeping the clutch pedal depressed so it cannot adhere to itself.
Peter
brittney,
Have you replaced the hydraulics or linkage?
Peter
i had my clutch replaced two years ago and it doesnt have many miles on the new one. it begins to engage at the top quarter inch of the pedal. The pedal feels solid but when i checked the fluid it was below the minium amount but i could still see fluid. IS this a pressure plste problem or a hydraulic? p.s. i loked for leaks but did not see any.
Is the slave cylibder for this truck rebuildable, or does it have to be replaced as a new assmebly?

Grinding/squealing noise from transmission when clutch is engaged. Vehicle has 135K miles. Clutch never replaced
we replaced the clutch slave cylinder on our truck and no we have no clutch @ all it will hardly start. We thought it could be the Clutch MasterCylinder so we replaced it with no luck. We cant figure this out? Please help
We purchased a slave cylinder for this truck and cant find a bleeder? We purchased this part at Advanced Auto. the original part has a Bleeder but not this aftermarket part? The cluctch seems to have Air in it but we dont know where to bleed it?

I have had my clutch replaced. I believe the new clutch is a Luk. The stock clutch seemed good with 110K miles but there was bearing noise. The noise is gone but I have clutch chatter now. The installer has already replaced the replacement clutch a second time and sent the first replacement clutch to his Luk supplier. They said there was nothing wrong with it. He has resurfaced the flywheel twice. After the second clutch it was good for about 200 miles and the chatter is back. It's most noticeable when the car is hot. The installer is baffled and doesn't know what else to do. Any ideas?
I am having serious problems with my transmission. I can start my car but when I try to shift into 1st gear an leave, the tranny locks me out and the clutch cant engage the gears! I put more fluid in my clutch resouvoir and still no go. If I try to slan into gear I either scrap against the tranny spinning the gears or if I do manage to get it into gear the car shuts off! What is going on? Thanks alot!
had tz clutch kit fitted but having problems getting 1st & reverse gears especialy when at running temp any ideas guys quite worried ???
GARY
I would say that you have a distorted or bent clutch disc or the hydraulics are not functioning properly.
Peter
Cooper
I would say you have a serious transmission problem but I am not a specialist of trans.. I would recommend taking it to a shop ASAP.
Peter
John Stieg
I am not impressed with the LUK clutch setup for your car. I would recommend getting the OEM clutch either from us or your dealer.
Peter
Carla
Even the after market slave should have a bleeder! My guess would be that they supplied you with the wrong slave cylinder.
Peter
Carla
Stop messing around and spend a few more bucks on the OEM complete unit. It comes bled and ready to go. If you still have a problem then get a firewall re-enforcement bracket from the dealer. It mounts where the Master cylinder bolts to the firewall. Replace the clutch fork while you are at it.
Peter
Layne
Either the clutch disc is completely worn to the rivets and scrapping the metal or the transmission is in need of repair.
Peter
kevin dague
It is not! The slave cylinder is internal (inside the transmission bell housing). Replace the whole slave with new when you do the job.
Peter
Dean
Replace with new!
thomas
The hydraulics are not the problem. Replace the clutch.
Peter
I had the car up for the winter moved it a couple of times. I had driven it up to a garage to get inspected for the road. I noticed on my drive home my clutch was high. I parked it for a couple of days and when I got in it my pedal was very hard to press and I press it hard and now there is no pressure on the pedal. I following the cable from the pedal to a cylinder and it is now cracked. The cylinder pushes against an arm, I can't move this arm with my hand is that normal. I want to replace the cylinder but why was there so much pressure that it wouldn't press. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks.

Hello Gents, I just bought one of your kevlar pilot bushings for my 74 Ford 351 Cleveland.It looks great! Thanks ! Are there any special install directions for using this ? The OD is slightly larger than stock so before I try to install I wanted to check with you. TNX & Rgds, Ralph GRanchelli
Sutterboy123,
You should not be able to push the arm in by hand, it takes a couple hundred pounds to do that. Replace the slave cylinder and you should be fine.
Peter
DesmondFields,
It either your master or slave. I would recommend changing both. As to how to do it, I would recommend getting a manual at your local library.
Peter
Justin Reisman,
Most slave cylinders have a bleed screw in the housing. Pump the clutch then hold it down after approx. 20 pumps then crack the bleeder. Close it before you release the pedal. Some systems don't offer the ability to bleed.
Peter
Dewona,
It has nothing to do with the clutch. Take it to a local garage or dealer.
Peter
Robert,
Not sure of your word chattering. Chatter is where you get hopping on takeoff. This is due to overheating the clutch. Do not ride the clutch, keep your foot off the pedal. If you mean shattering or breaking, this is normally due to improper gears on takeoff or down shifting. Down shifting is very damaging to the clutch disc springs. Do not use the clutch as a brake.
Peter
Patty,
If there is no resistance on the clutch pedal it may be due to your hydraulic system. Replace the hydraulics. If that does not work take it back to where the job was done for possible installation error.
Peter
Ralph GRanchelli,
Due to the material they are slightly larger then stock. We recommend you press them in, it will shrink to fit and will also reduce the ID to the proper size.
Peter
Swapped the trans with a nv4500 and the clutch with a mu13-1.25 Con-O at idle there is noticably a bit more vibration than there used to be. The moment you get it a bit of idle, it's smooth as glass. The only thing that I could think of that causes this is that the new clutch/flywheel assembly is lighter than the stock Sachs/Borg/Beck unit, and hence vibration damping is a bit less. Does that make any sense?
I just had the clutch replaced. It performs normally until the motor reaches 3000rpm, then the clutch hose starts to vibrate heavily, banging against the body making an awful noise, and the clutch pedal goes soft, as if there was air in the system, and shifting becomes difficult. When the engine goes back below 3000rpm everything seems OK. My attempt to secure the clutch hose keeps the noise down, but the pedal still goes soft. Was the internal clutch slave installed incorrectly, and is there more damage being done beside the synchros on my transmission during the difficult shifts?

how do you bleed a clutch?
How do I adjust clutch
we were adviced to replace our clutch - so we did (we replaced the clutch plate, pressure plate and throw out bearing) - now the clutch has a "squealing" noise - then we were told it was the slave cly. so we replaced that - now the clutch still "squels" and we noticed if you let it run for a few minutes there is "smoke" "kinda smells like a burnt clutch " that comes from between the bellhousing and engine - please help
I just put in a new clutch cable, it felt good for a short time, now the pedal is EXTREMELY hard to push in, feels like binding, did I do something wrong? Looks like the cable is rubbing on the bracket or misaligned. Where can find a picture or diagram to help. Please help, this is really frustating and I deliver in this car. Thanks very much for your time and any help.

It kinda makes a little sense but on the contrary, the 12 1/4" is 5 lbs. lighter then the conversion you bought and has been replacing the Sachs unit for some time without issues.

It sounds like the slave was not installed correctly and yes it will cause damage to force the shifter into gear
Steve Klein
The OEM thickness is 1.500" and I would not let it go past 1.450".

I don't believe there is a special fork to go with. I would not suggest the long style anyway. Can't get enough clamp load out of this design.

It does sound like you have it hooked up wrong. You should be able to go to the library and get the information you need.
Peter

If you are asking how to do it step by step, I would suggest going to the library for a instruction guide.

You have a hydraulic system and I would venture to say that this is where your problem is. Get a new master and slave installed.

I NEED STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO PUT A NEW CLUTCH IN MY PICK UP TRUCK THANK YOU
BOB
Go to your library...you should be able to find everything you need there and print it out.
Peter
yes how do I adjust the cluch to make it more stiffer I have to push all the way down to shift
Doug
It is non adjustable. You either have hydraulic problems or clutch fork and pivot ball problems.
Peter
I have been having diffulty shifting into geare but off and on. The clucth is about 2 years old.I have also had the master cylinder replaced less than a year ago.A few days ago the truck started but would not shifted into geare.I put in a new slaver cylinder but I still can't seem to get the geares to engage. They will work when the engine is not on but when I start the truck, its like the gears are locked.What do you think?
Tim
You should always do the master cylinder at the same time as the slave. This way you leave no room for doubt. If this does not fix the problem then my guess would be your clutch fork and pivot ball.
Peter
When I start the truck it rattles and it stops once the engine it running. Also I here noise and after push the clutch in the noise stops.

I would take it in and have the transmission looked at.

If the brg. was not installed on the fork right it will cause this problem. Also, did they replace both the master and the slave cylinders?
Peter
wilson
There should be a bleeder on the slave cylinder. Pump, crack, tighten, release. Other then that I would have to wonder if the clutch is installed correctly.
Peter
BOB
These trucks can can have worn linkage and force you to adjust tight to get enough throw to allow the clutch to disengage. I would replace or repair (ALL) the linkage, then re-adjust.

How do I fix a clutch on my car and if you have any kind of directions on how to fix it, it would be really helpful.. Thanks
I think my clutch is going out, when I speed shift from 2-3 gear it grinds but goes into gear, but sometimes the shifter seems to fall into gear without any effort. After the car has warmed up and I come to a stop the clutch makes a squeaking noise from first gear and faintly from second gear. Do you think its the clutch or transmission. Also it still shifts into all gears and stays in gear. It only happens when I speed shift.
I have a 1993 Ford escort with a 1.9 efi, the clutch is slipping is there a way to tighten it?
can you please explain to me how to remove and intall the clutch cable?
MY VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY SLIPS W/ ENGINE REVVING AND NO ACCELERATION OR TORQUE. A NEW CLUTCH WAS JUST PUT ON ABOUT A MONTH AGO BECAUSE THE OLD ONE WAS WORN. THERE ARE NO LEAKS AT MASTER OR SLAVE CYLINDER. PEDAL HEIGHT IS 6 INCHES AND BOOK CALLS FOR 7 1/4. PEDAL FREEPLAY IS GOOD AT 1/4 INCH. PEDAL TENSION IS GOOD. FLUID LEVEL IS FINE. SLAVE CYLINDER IS DIRECTLY MOUNTED TO CLUTCH, SO THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MOVING PARTS.
My clutch cable snapped and I need to replace it. I know which one it is, but not how to take it out or put another in. Is there a diagram or step-by-step instructions that I can use to do this?

Do I have to take the hydalic pump out of the tranny to get the tranny out from under the truck??
does the hydralic pump come off the tranny to get the tranny out from the truck.
Thanks for the 3 springs for the P-Plate. I'm not sure what happen (Yet). everything seemed to go together great, till I saw that the 3 adjuster screws on the P-Plate arms didn't come in contact with the Though out bearing at the same time,, One Bolt is in contact the other is .100 away and the 3d is .200 away, and things shake like the Motors out of balance ?? This P-Plate was great till I put the 3 springs in (This is a SouthBend P-Plate). It seems as if the P-Plate Disk is not centered ?? Please tell me I can fix this without Pullin' the Trany again. Maybe just loosen'ing the 3 Lock nuts on the P-Plate cover, press the clutch peddle a few times, then retighten the 3 cover lock nuts ?? what do you think?
When started in gear car lurched forward and unable to take out of gear. When started in neutral unable to put in gear. In reverse it makes a strange noise. Does this sound like a damaged clutch or a broken clutch cable. Does this car have a cable or hydolic clutch. Yesterday clutch seemed tight but worked.
just installed new clutch wiil not engage.hydraulic/torqued right/new slave
I bought this car in 98 when it had 190K km on it. I added 30K km in last six years. Three questions: 1. The engine stalls if I depress brake and depress clutch paddle together at stop (or red light). The speed when failure occoured could be anywhere from 20-40 km/hr. Stall doesn't happen if I do in such sequence as depress clutch first, gear to neutral, then brake. 2. Also noticed the clutch swith is in odd with the description in Repair Manual (as well as web info for Honda and Toyota) - the continuity is on when the clutch is released while is off when the clutch is depressed. The rubber pad on the arm of clutch rests on the tip of the switch when the clutch is released. I can start the engine with or without the clutch is depressed. Do you have a drawing indicating the correct mounting of the clutch switch? Any bad consequency of keeping the current installation (other than unprotected start when the shift is in gear)? 3. How to tell if the switch is "Clutch Switch" or "Cruise Switch"? The Repair Manual also mentioned cruise swith around clutch paddle. Thanks a lot.
how to remove hydrolic clutch line
I've had this tractor overhauled twice and this time it still does'nt work because they did'nt get the clutch shaft and the clutch connected the right way because I have no clutch and you can slide the clutch shaft back and forth and almost pull it out. what did they do incorrectly? And am I going to have to break this dang tractor completely apart again? Please Help! Any advice will be appreciated! Thanks Russ
Purchased a 1985 Toyota Supra. Previous owner stated he replaced clutch. I noticed when clutch was dis-engaged (pushed in to put car in gear), it would not spring back up properly. It would come up a little, I would have to take my foot and bring clutch pedal back up (it would still shift gears). I parked the car and went out the next morning to move it. I noticed when I pressed clutch pedal down to put it in gear, there was no resistance whatsoever. The clutch pedal went down to the floor and remained there. I am getting no pressure back from the clutch pedal. It's so many parts associated with the clutch (hydrolic cluth). I verified there was plenty of fluid in the container above the master cylinder. I checked the rubber boot for any leaks (above clutch pedal inside the car), didn't notice anything unusual. I would have to buy parts (shooting in the dark type of approach). I would appreciate if someone could provide a logical means of troubleshooting the problem.
How do I adjust the clutch pedal on this car? The clutch disengages to high on the pedal than I like. Thanks!

I am able to engage first, third and fifth gears but unable to engage second, fourth or reverse, why?
J.J.,
If you have not done a clutch job before, I would recommend taking it to a garage.
Peter
What kind of transmission fluid goes into this transmission, i don't have a owners manual. can you help or direct me to someone that can. thank you.
MARCUS,
Speed shifting can sometimes be hard to get into gear simply because you're not allowing the transmission to stop. Not quite sure about the squeaking noise but check your cable to see if it runs close to the exhaust manifold. If it does wrap it with some heat tape.
Peter
Robert Regan,
No, you will need to replace the clutch.
Peter
nap,
Start at the pedal and work your way to the clutch fork. Put it back on in reverse order. If you need pictures try your local library.
Peter
KEN FOX,
I would be curious as to whether the flywheel was resurfaced. Also if it was resurfaced too much.
Peter
Emilio Mejia,
We do not have instruction guides for every vehicle made. I would recommend going to the library.
Peter

Should be where the cable passes through the firewall or at the pedal.
Peter
Joe Wiley,
Not quite sure, sorry.
Peter
david,
The vehicle has an internal slave cylinder and will require the bell housing to be removed, do your clutch inspection at this time.
Peter
james,
This particular slave cylinder, OEM, has a piston in the slave cylinder that needs to be removed with the after market bearing replacement. If not removed, it will depress the clutch and keep it disengaged.
Peter
What kind of transmission fluid goes into this transmission, i don't have a owners manual. can you help or direct me to someone that can. thank you.
H,
Sir, you are kind of beyond me with this question since we are just a clutch manufacturer. I suggest taking it to a transmission shop.
Peter
david norman,
You need to use 2 little screw drivers to collapse the diaphragm or get a tool from your local tool truck that is made for the job.
Peter
r howell,
I would say yes, you need to take it back apart, unfortunately. You need to see if there is some sort of keeper to hold the shaft in place.
Peter
Bryan Minor,
Check the boot on the slave cylinder for moisture instead of the master cylinder.
Peter
Richard Roberts,
It is hydraulic and non-adjustable.

When i push the clutch in and out it makes a sqeaking noise from inside the engine bay, possible inside the gearbox. The clutch does not slip and my gear change is good. What could the squeaking noise be?? Could it be that the clutch is stuffed??
Is there any clutch adjustment for a 1991 sl 4 cly. My clutch is slipping and I would like to try adjusting if possible. Before replacing it. I am currently not working...:(
I have been bleeding my hydralic clutch but it still will not go in gear. It has a new clutch, slave cyl., throw out bearing, and preasure plate. Still it will not go in gear while it's running, but will when it's not running. HELP!

Do I need the truck Running to bleed the hydrolic clutch? It's a race truck and it will start but not go in gear. Bought a new tranny and clutch and pressure plate looked good can u help thanks AC2 James Sellner
the clutch on my car went to the floor and i have been told it is a hydraulic clutch and may just need the pipe checked, does it take fluid as if it does then that would be my problem as i havent touched it in the 6 years i have owned the car, and if so how do i go about fixing this problem??
I am Building A Probe and looking for a Good clutch and I heard about you guys and was wanting to know what kinda clutch should I get am looking for one that I can you for racing at the track but still drive around town, would the DXD be a good one to go with?
How do you bleed the clutch it has no bleed screw
I just installed the HYDRALIC CLUTCH PIPE that goes from the clutch MASTER CYLINDER to the piston that pushes against the clutch fork to disengage the clutch. I have no pedal. I filled the resivor, open the bleeder and let gravity fill the pipe with fluid. Still I have no pedal. I looked in my Chiltons Manual but couldn`t find an anwser to my problem. Little Help? Thank-you Scott G.
While driving the clutch would would not depress. I lifted it with my hand and it was fine for fifteen minutes or so then It competely broke. I bought the car from a mechanic last week and called to ask him about it and he hung up on me. I did notice that it is leaking fluid. Thanks.
I replaced the clutch and pressure plate because of the throw out bearing was bad. I also replaced the slave cylinder at that time. I have driven the truck for about 6 mos. now I was tring to get more clutch pedal to mabe get it to shift smoother thinking maybe there might be a little air in the system. Ended up with no pedal. I just replaced the master cylinder and have really good pedal but now unable to get the truck in gear. I tried bleeding the slave cyl. with no results. What do you think? Thanks , Hinrich
one day clutch started grabbing earlier then noraml. in the morning clutch would contnue the same. When engine heats up clutch operation seems normal. tried bleeding and now pedal is on the floor. what should i do?
I installed a new clutch pressure plate and relase bearing and clutch cable and can not get any type of clutch pedal any suggestions?
My mechanics replaced the entire clutch, then said I needed the master clutch cylinder. They told me it was a 16 hour job. I am skeptical, and was wondering how long the book says it takes to install a clutch on a 94 Silerado 45x4 5-speed. I am at their mercy unless I can get some more information. Thanks. Jeanne Griffith
I purchased a custom one-off clutch from you guys about 2-months ago. Eddie built it for me using a Kevlar pressure plate side and the carbon/ceramic on the flywheel side. The clutch has both Marcel and hub springs. My question is, when the clutch heats up, its engagement point seems to get higher. Is this normal for the Kevlar material due to its changing coefficient of friction? I am also using a Fidanza flywheel. By the way, after break-in it seems to be holding great with smooth engagement!
Thanks, Eric

Thanks Steve 303-916-9511
clutch wont go into 3rd 4th and 5th gear works fine in 1st and 2nd
I adjusted my clutch today but I'm not sure what direction it was supposed to go. What I mean is this. I turned it towards the tranny..in other words, if your looking at the vehicle, it would be clockwise. It worked but I was told to turn it clockwise but I don't know if that was clockwise when your facing the vehicle or away from the vehicle.
my clutch was slipping i took tranny out the clutch disc is good why is the clutch slipping

If there is an adjustment it is normally where the cable passes through the firewall.

The system is non adjustable. The 99 7.3 6sp does not use the spring loaded flywheel. If you had fluid/oil on the clutch then it was your front or real seal leaking.
Peter
bill thelen
If it is adjustable, you would not tighten the cable...you should loosen the cable.

how do i adjust the clutch on my truck. 5 speed over drive, manual. It seems every year I have to adjust it, I need to do it myself if possible.
where is the clutch bleeder screw for my car. It has the six speed hydraulic clutch
I have a 1994 Sentra 1.6 4 cyl that was sold to me as a 4 speed manual transmission. It appears to actually be a 5 speed. Gears 1 - 4 work fine, attempting 5th gear sounds like trying to put the car into gear without the clutch. I can put it into 5th from a stand still. The engine boggs down and the car feels like it is trying to move but can not (like staring off in 5th gear). Is there a syncro that can be replaced? Can the transmission be repaired or adjusted or should I have the whole transmission replaced?
joe brannum,
I would start with seeing if you can change the starter.
Peter
Scott,
Change the hydraulics.
Peter
Rich Liddel,
Yes there is a break in period, but understand, these are a more positive engaging clutch built to hold the higher horse power. I recommend taking the RPMs up and drive the vehicle with a little more aggression.
Peter
mark smith,
I believe McCloud makes an internal hydraulic slave cylinder.
Peter
Jim,
If the clutch is engaging closer to the floor it is probably your hydraulics.
Peter
mary hada,
Not sure, call an automatic transmission shop.
Peter
Darbie S,
Are you saying the engine RPMs are higher in second and fourth gear? I would not think this would not be transmission related.
Peter
Danny Snow,
Quite often there is an adjustable rod by the clutch pedal. Also where ever there is a pivot point in the pedal down to the transmission you may find wear or slop. Repair or replace. This should help your problem.
Peter
rocky,
It is not adjustable.
Peter
Juan Carlos Diez de Medina,
Not sure, we do not deal with automatics.
Peter

le kelly,
If this is the 7.3 diesel, they have a clutch fork problem. I agree with you, if they're familiar with what your problem is then they should replace them under warranty. Remember this, it is NOT clutch or brake issues. Those are the wearable items that are not warrantied past 12000 miles, hydraulics are.
Peter
Chuck,
You may have bad teeth on the flywheel ring gear.

I am on clutch #3 in one year already.The car will not take a new clutch.What is wrong? The realease bearing rattles like crazy and I can never take off properly. The first few days with the new clutch always seems good then gets worse and worse,Same symptoms all the time.Is there a special way to bleed the clutch on these cars?I am sick of the car being in the shop more than on the road..thank god for warranty!!
112K miles - Replaced slave and clutch due to what seemed to be a leak in the slave. Two weeks later - could not get out of 1st gear - checked the slave - empty again. Am I missing a possible leak from a hose/tube? Thank you!
My truck has only 8,000 miles on it and the clutch releases almost at the very end of the pedal draw. If this can't be adjusted, what can be done?
the shifter is stuck. I can shift with engine turned off. the clutch seems to be partly engaged. example. if i turn on vehicle in 1st it will go in first with clutch petal depressed and shifter is stuck. i can't get it in neutral. same with all gears.
When cold, clutch works normally. Drive 20 miles, clutch feel like a brake - wont go down. Sit awhile and clutch pedal goes in easy, but when you let it out, the clutch itself slips some, then releases suddenly. Let it cool, works fine.
My 1995 Pontiac Sunfire manual clutch has stopped working. There is hardly any pressure when I press on it to shift and the fluid is leaking and it is hard to shift in and out of gears. I have almost 90,000 miles on it. We are trying to find out how to check everything on it before just buying a new clutch system. This includes bleeding the bleed valve if that is what you call it. Please get back to me asap as we are down to one car now. Thank you, Carla

my 94 probe is acting funny when i start it up after it sits for a few hours. for about a minute or so it won't accelerate immedeately. by this i mean it will be in neutral, i will tap the accellerator and the rpms will drop very temporarily. after a minute or two this will stop and the car will begin functioning regularly. all my guages inside the car read normal. any clue whats going on? i've very little money and heard five different guesses from five shops.

if you can help that would be amazing, my 5speed clutch has problems with well shifting,it goes in gear really hard but it only does it sometimes, i bleed the clutch and that fixed it for about a month or so, its doing it again so i bled it again and the pedel gets good, then totally loses its pressure, no leaks i can see but the fluid does go down overtime, so it sucked air in it and i think thats why it doesnt disengauge,now it will run great about 40% of the time and the rest of the time it goes in really hard, or doesnt go at all, it shifts fine when off, my tranny was rebuilt about a year ago and i also got a new clutch then, if you can help that would make my year, thanks

I have a 1988 ford ranger 2 wheel drive with the 6 cylinder engine. I bought the vehicle used. Every since I bought the vehicle, the clutch never seemed to grab good, even slipped. So I replaced the clutch with a full kit. It was better but didn't seem to want to grab well. I also have to let the pedal almost all the way out before it would grab. Well now the clutch is slipping bad. I took the trans out and the clutch looks ok, and the throwout bearing looks good and everything is visually ok. I was thinking for some reason the the throwout bearing was not releasing all the way causing the problem, so I trimmed about an 1/8" off the plastic spacer on the throwout bearing assembly. The clutch starts to grab a little faster then it use to (pedal all the way out) but it still slips bad. Please help?

AIR IN CLUTCH SYSTEM? I recently replaced the 5 speed Mazda transmission in my 94 Ranger because of a damaged 5th gear. Before installing, I replaced the clutch and pressure plate, slave unit and master cylinder. Now, after extensive bleeding (drip and pumping peddle), I have about a quarter of an inch movement at the pressure plate. The transmission, which shifts fine with the engine off, is hard to shift into forward gears and grinds when going into reverse. Pros have told me I must still have drag at the clutch but I can't get more air out. Only the hose and connector were not replaced. Help? I've bled the clutch until the cows came home. Could air be trapped in the connector?

When I go to start my tracker I get nothing but the lights on the dash (engine, brake, oil etc.) it does not try to turn over at all. Then several hours later my husband tried to start it and it started. The next day it started and ran fine. I still took it to the garage and had them do a computer check on it and it came back that everything was fine. I went home and when I started to go to work 2 hours later it did it again. And it has been 9 hours and it will not start. Could this have anything to do with the clutch? The mechanic said he has no ideal of what it could be.
Clutch Bleeding...even using the manual I can't get it....any suggestions?

what is the right why to bleed a clutch slave cylinder

I am having a clutch problem and I have replaced the master cylinder and have been trying to bleed it but it's not working? what is the proper way to bleed those things or could it be something else. Thanks Joy
I installed your clutch & pressure plate. Also replaced the throw-out bearing & pilot bearing included in the kit from "Quad 4X4" with your South Bend Clutch. This was done along with a new mainshaft kit for my NV4500. Now I have a chirp just as the clutch fully engages. I've driven it a couple of months hoping it would quit, but it hasn't. What do you think it is and should I be doing something about it? Quad 4X4 refered me to you for answer.

i just did my clutch for the first time on my probe and cannot seem to get pressure in the pedal. i've bled it a few times, but lost pressure more and more each time until now, which there is no pressure at all.
would like to convert auto trans to 5-speed stick...?
I had a new clutch installed and new flywheel and for some reason when you back up with a trailer it wants to buck real bad.They said to replace the slave cylinder.It did not help at all. Truck works find unless you hook up trailer and try to back truck up.Friends 1999 dodge 3500 4x4 had new clutch from a different installer put in and it does the same thing.thanks in advance
I bought this truck about 2 mo. ago& after about 2 weeks after a 60 mile trip the clutch would barely disengage to pull into gear.I checked the clutch fluid,it was black.Used a syringe to clean out reservoir and replaced with new dot-3 fluid.It worked fine after that but after another trip the next week,the same result.Any ideas on what could be causing this?Thanks
I had a sbc installed and some tranny work, I am in the process of trying to figure out if it is my clutch or tranny not working properly. I had the synchros replaced, bearing kit, and input shaft replaced. the problem is when I shift with the clutch pedal all the way on the floor it still won't go into gear like the input shaft is still spinning barely so I have to float it into gear everytime. I was told that my input shaft might be resting on the pilot bushing causing the shaft to still spin slightly. I am just trying to find a starting point since the transmission shop that did the tranny work said it was the clutch and the guy I had do the clutch said it was the tranny. So if you have any ideas I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I have a problem with my clutch. When i push it in it stay to the mat and it all loose and cant get the truck in gear. I then leave the truck running and take the clutch fluid cap off and i pump the clutch back and forth with my hand for about 5 minutes and it gets hard and back to normal and works fine but then if i leave the truck parked over night it is all loose again, i cant notice any leaks. i always have to pump it for it to work properly could you please tell me what is wrong, i think i need a new slave cylinder but im not sure. thank you.
I have recently purchased this vehicle and today on the way to work I stopped to make a left. I had put the car in neutral and released the clutch. When I went to put the car in gear, it would not go in any gear . I finally got it into reverse and then into first. this problem happened two more times within the next three miles. Could you tell me what problem these symptoms might be related to please? I am buying the vehicle froma friend who is the original owner and kept up the maintanince on the vehicle. The car has 175000 miles.
Could you please tell me exactly where the clutch master cylinder is located on the firewall?

can a cluth in a 300zx be adjusted? It is on the floor now.
I have 49,000 miles on the car and clutch needs ot be replaced. Dealer says there is a problem with the fly wheeels in this model and needs to replace the fly wheel as well. None o f this is under warranty since they deal with it as wear and tear like brakes. However, if the fly wheel is bad wouldn't that affect the lifespan of the clutch? It seems odd to have blown out the clutch at such low mileage with normal driving. And since they admit a fly wheel problem I was wondering about the possible connection.

I recently replaced all the hydraulics in my clutch. It runs great for one day than i find a total loss of hydraulic pressure. The fluid is not leaking out but coming back into the master cylinder. I have replaced the slave cylinder twice and still no good. Any help for me?
HI, My clutch has build installed in a shop professionally. I paid $500 with installation and resurfacing. The clutch was working fine for a 1.5 months. My clutch started to vibrate (chatter) from the 1st gear. I took it back to the shop they said everything is fine. They also said thats how it is suppose to be. I tooke it to other 2 shops and they said that something is wrong with a clutch. What would you recomend me to do.
Thanks a lot
Eugene
what would cause the transmission not to shift from gear to gear once the motor is runing. i did notice the clutch fluid was low.
can you replace the clutch throwout bearing without taking out the transmition?
I replaced the clutch took out my geer shifter and now it is locked into geer and not in neutral anymore. Any suggestions?
Does the transmission have to be dropped to change the slave cylinder?
Replacing the stock clutch, I would like to do something with a very long life and fairly high power potential, in case I go to a single turbo when the stock turbos fail.
I have been considering the Tilton carbon 3-disc and the RPS carbon/carbon 2-disc.
What would be the correct South Bend? The picture of the Supra disk is unsprung? Would that mean the stock (very heavy) flywheel is needed? Or could the aluminum flywheel be used? Or do you make a sprung Supra clutch for an aluminum flywheel?
Thanks,
David

Martha,
Sorry, I have no idea either.
Peter
Bob,
You need to pump the pedal at least 30 times holding it down on the last pump. Crack the bleeder until fluid runs, close the bleeder. Repeat the proceedure until air is completely gone.
Peter
Mark,
You need to get back in to the transmission. You have had to installed something inproperly, maybe disc backwards.
Peter
Joe,
It could very easily be your pilot bearing, this will cause the input shaft to continue to turn even when the clutch is released.
Peter
David Witner,
If you haven't taken the horse power up past 350 rwhp then I would recommend our MU 0090 Rally.
Peter
John Leonard,
You may have another problem. The clutch system might be bled but you have the bearing installed on the clutch fork wrong. This is a notorious problem.
Peter
Matthew,
No.
Peter
____,
It takes a special tool. Go to a parts store or a local dealer for the hose for the S10.
Peter
christopher,
Sounds like your transmission has failed or the clutch has failed.
Peter
jesse williams,

Peter
Doug Lytle,
I have a few questions for you so it would be best for you to call me at our toll free number.
Peter
Ryan,
You are doing something wrong. I would probably suggest taking it to a local transmission shop and have them power bleed it for you.
Peter
Kevin R. Brown,
What clutch are you putting in?
Peter
Wade,
Probably leaky hydraulics. It doesn't take much air to cause a problem. Replace the master and slave.
Peter
Roark Waddell,
It sounds to me like the pilot bearing got dinged when the clutch was installed. Take it back to who did the clutch job.
Peter

Mike,
If you truely have 740 hp you will never get a single disc clutch to hold. I would recommend contacting a company that carries a triple disc like Tilton.
Peter
Kristy,
Sorry, I do not have any of that information.
Peter
Burt,
Did you replace the clutch? If not, do. Other then that, it may be in the transmission.
Peter
trendierplayer,
It is not adjustable and yes it can be bled but you must be very careful. I suggest taking it to someone who is qualified.
Peter
Jerry,
Not that I know of.
Peter
Mike,
There is no adjustment. You will need to go to your manual for the type of fluid.
Peter
paul,
The 88 ford F150 carried an internal slave and the bearing is connected to the slave. I'm not sure what dimension you are inquiring about.
Peter
Tim Benz,
Try going to www.probetalk.com. You will find all the information you could ask for.
Peter
Edward Martin,
It is not adjustable.
Peter
jeremy shankle,
Some of the Nissans have an adjusting rod under the dash by the clutch pedal.
Peter
Amanda,
I think you have a valid point. If the flywheel failed prematurely, it would definately help the clutch to fail. If they are replacing the flywheel under warranty then the clutch should be replaced with it. I would certainly press this issue.
Good luck.
Peter
Greg LeFevre,
Give us a call and ask for the DXD clutch department. I'm sure they will be able to give you the specifics.
Peter
Rick Laferriere,
We have found this to be an issue when the clutch is replaced with an OEM pressure plate. The fingers appear to be too low, we therefore use the S10 pressure plate to resolve the problem.
Peter
Eugene,
If the shop that did the work is not willing to work with you and you have given them every opportunity then I would recommend taking it to a different shop, getting the work done, and if it proves to be part or installation error take them to small claims court.
Good luck.
Peter
quintin grey,
You probably have bad hydraulics. Replace the master and slave cylinders.
Peter
Keith Eckhart,
No. The tranny has to come out.
Peter
Chris,
Yes, the tranny has to come out.
Peter
David Ziegelhem,
Both the companies you referred to are a very good product but may be over kill depending on what your intentions are. Yes, we can do a sprung hub, I would recommend calling our toll free number and asking for the DXD dept. to see what we could build in the single disc clutch for you.
We do not offer double discs for this application. We were able to get our single disc to hold in our supra up to 650/700 hp. Now that we are at or over 1000 hp we are using a double disc.
Peter
How much freeplay should there be at the top of the stroke for the clutch pedal of this truck?
Hi, my truck will not go into gear after it gets hot. I have put a new slave cylinder in it with no luck the clutch doesnt slip while in gear but the hotter it gets the farther you have to push the pedel until finally it gets towhere you cant get it into gear. Do i need a new clutch or is it another problem i have to adress? thanks-Doug

How do I ajust my clutch on my 93 honda civic
The clutch on my 93 civic won't release. I thought this might be a hydraulic problem so I put in a new master and release cylinder and bleed the system but that didn't help. It was always difficult to change gears on the thing since I bought it 2 yrs ago but now only occasionally will I get any clutch release. Can this be a problem with the actual clutch componants and what do you think it could be?
I have to almost push the clutch pedal to the floor to start, can the clutch pedal be adjusted? If so, how?
I had just bled the clutch on my truck and it is still not engaging or disingadging without pumping pedal. Bad Master cyl.? I bled it from cylinder @ fenderwell which goes directly to throwout bearing arm. Is there something I'm missing?

I just switched my car from auto to 5 speed, everything worked on the parts car(I test drove it). I took out the trans and hydraulics on a friday and i installed it the next morning. Now no matter how much i bleed it, (ive done gravity, and with a helper)it doesnt seem to get any better. I have no leaks, it looks like the slave cylinder is only going about 1/2 of the way out? thank you

I brougt back and waiting to here from.I stii don"t believe I needed a complete re-build.I suggested when 1st. drop off truck.It may need to adjust kick down band, or solenoid troubles.Have you encountered this senerio before. sign,desperate. tahnk you .
my cluth pedal is low when engine is cold, that's why I have to push the pedal all the way down to engage into gear but still grinds a little on 1st and 2nd gears.

Already tried bleeding it, it did not work. Thanks.

ryan,
You must purchase the tool from your local toolman to do this job.
Peter
Mike Reynolds,
If there is a bleeder you will find it on the slave.
Peter
Cliff,
Either the flywheel was improperly resurfaced or the pressure plate is not bolted down completely or it is a bad clutch.
Peter
jimi,
Contact your dealer.
Peter
Jeneen,
Refer to my semi-truck catalog link at the bottom of that page. That will show you adjusting proceedure. As for the brakes, I'm not sure.
Peter
Ross,
There is no adjustment, as for knowing if it is slipping, start out in first gear then quickly shift to 3rd. Put the gas down and watch the tack. If the RPMs shoot up, and the vehicle is not speeding up, then the clutch is slipping.
Peter
Mike Tucker,
Replace your hydraulics.

The balance point on my car is much lower than it used to be, maybe an inch off the ground now. When I try to shift into gears it is grinding and very difficult. I can shift, the car is drivable but it is very touchy, double pumping the cluch seems to help but it is still hard. When I was driving the other day the gears seemed to grind very bad and then it seemed much beter. I had the slave cylinder replaced about a year ago and am told that that is probably what is wrong with it again. I am told that replacing the slave cylinder is an easy job but I can't seem to find any information on how to do it. Could you please help even tell me if you think it is the slave cylinder and how I would go about replacing it. There are some days that are better that others but I need to get it fixed it is getting rediculious

Have you added any HP to your truck? I would not call it normal to wear a clutch out that fast. The one thing that I don't like about the factory clutch is that if you noticed from the onset that the clutch engaged near the top of the pedal. They have been set this way from the factory not allowing much room for wear.
Peter
Clutch went out @ 29400 km. ( 18000 mi.) These were all highway miles with moderate use pulling holiday trailer and stock trailer. What could cause this?

I replaced clutch, throw out bearing, slave cylinder in my Ford F150 that has 210,000 miles...problem is the clutch pedal will not adjust. Fluid in MC is ok. How do you get the clutch pedal ro rise??
we replaced the clutch clutch master & slave and still do not have any movement on the slave . I do'nt see were the slave can move any futher to engage the clutch .please give some help.
i need a picture on how to put the clutch peddle assembly back together like where the bushings go
Tom
You need to bleed the system. Read above for the procedure.
Peter
mark
I am not quite understanding...you don't have any movement out of the slave or it can't move any further? If it is at it maximum travel the check to make sure you have the clutch installed properly. ie clutch disc in the right direction. If the slave is not moving at all then bleading the system is next. Read above for the procedure.
Peter

I do not have that available but if you would like to call me I can run over it with you verbally.

my clutch has all air when compressed,and is leaking fluid out right by the boot.would this be my slave cylinder? Thank You
are the torque converters for the 3.5 and 3.3 motors the same.
where do you adjust the cluth for a 1989 Ford F-150?
The blower fan dosen't want to go off, the only way it goes off is by removing the fuse in the engine corpartment. With the engine off and the ignition key removed, the fan still running. I notice the blower speed control dosen't work, it stays on high all the time. What else it can be beside a bad swicth, is hard to believe it stays on even with the ignition key removed. Thanks Ron CAstaner

Hello, my truck has the biggest single disk clutch that you offer and dynoed at (300/900). Recently my clutch has started to slip at high boost levels. I would appreciate it if you could tell me if their is a problem with my clutch or if i need a dual disk clutch.

The transmission in this vehicle was removed for rebuilding. Since it has been reinstalled the clutch will not bleed up. A new clutch master and slave cylinder have been installed and the appropriate bleeding procedure followed. But still no pedal. The most movement we can get is approximately 1/4 of an inch at the release bearing. Can anyone give me some ideas?

83 Toyota Land Cruiser, 6.2 Chevy Diesel, NV4500. Putting this combo together. Using 96 up GM bell housing with hydraulic slave. I bought a 12" clutch set for a 91 model year Chevy truck. Can the pressure plate be used, or do I need a pressure plate designed for the hyd slave? . New to hyd slaves, are these fairly reliable? I'm concerned about the push together hose fittings and plastic lines. Any other fittings avail for the hyd bearing that I could connect a steel flare line too?
Thanks!

how to bleed a clutch
1996 Ford Ranger 2WD 2.3L, 98,000m: For a few months, my clutch has been slipping and I had to fill up the clutch fuid every week or so. I figured I needed a new clutch, and that the slave cylinder was leaking. I replaced the clutch, pressure plate and entire slave cylinder, got everything back together and after bleeding the system I still can't get the clutch to disengage enough to get into any gear. I can see the slave cylinder travel about half and inch or so, and it is definitely pushing on the pressure plate. First question: how far should it travel? Is there ANY adjustment to the system considering the new clutch is thicker than the old? Is it possible my master cylinder is bad? That seems odd since I was able to shift before. I've bled the thing over and over and tried different methods -- is it possible that air is still trapped somehow? Thanks in advance for any help -- I'm very frustrated after doing all this and I just want my truck back!!

I had a Rally clutch put in a while back about 15,000 miles ago. I notice when I launch it hard or if I'm on a hill there's a squaking honking kind of sound at clutch engagement I can also feel a slight vibration along with this noise. It only does it on a start once I'm moving and rowing through the gears I can't get it to do it.
Pedal will not disengage tranny. I Rebuilt the master and slave cyls. thinking that It was just not travelling far enough.

Peter, What clutch do I need? I have a 01 HO 6-speed. My Mods are Mach 1.5s injectors and a Catcher"MAD" ECM. 4" exhaust and a BHAF. I do not plan on adding any additional power and my stock clutch is not slipping yet, but I haven't towed anything since the injectors were installed. Do I still fit with in the Con-O or do I need the OFE. I tow a 10,000lbs 5th wheel and a gooseneck about the same weight. I don't tow all the time, probably 1-2 times a month. If you need more info. let me know. I have never dynoed my truck, but could if it is questionable. I'm not trying to be cheap, just don't want too much or too little clutch. Thanks for all of your help. JON Phone 812-267-2837

I installed one of your MU1947 ConFE clutch kits. Love the clutch but I seem to be developing troubles after 10K miles on it. I have approx 425hp and 850ft lbs torque at best. My problem is when I push the clutch pedal in to shift into gear at a stop, the clutch is not fully disengaging. By this I mean it takes many times trying to get the trans into any gear. I have also noticed that when I pull into the driveway and depress the pedal that I sometimes cant shift the trans out of gear and into neutral. Again it feels like the clutch is not releasing fully. My truck only has 27K miles on it and shouldnt be worn out.?? The pedal feels fine and nothing seems to have changed. I have changed trans fluid less than 200 miles ago, inspected the clutch master and slave cylnders many times and have found not troubles here. Does your clutch add extra load the the clutch hydraulic system and cause them to fail? This is one of those cheap sealed units that have no adjustments as you probably know. The trouble is slowly getting worse over the past 800 miles. I tried to blow any dust out of the flywheel housing thinking this might be a problem but no dust and no improvement. Is there anything else I can check before pulling the trans? If I do pull the trans and find a problem with the clutch, is it rebuildable by you or do I need to purchase a whole new clutch setup? What might I do next? Thanks, John.

My pickup is a 4x4 with a v6 engine. It has a five speed transmission. It has been hard to get into gear for some time, and then about a week ago I couldn't get it to change from one gear to the next while I was driving. I had a new clutch, pressure plate and throughout bearing put in about a year ago, but it doesn't act like it did when I needn't those repairs. I thought maybe it was the hydraulics of the slave cylinder or the clutch master cylinder, but I can't tell that it is leaking and it seems to be full of fluid. I took the slave cylinder loose and I couldn't see that it was leaking. I took a bar and tried to push on the arm from the pressure plate and I couldn't make it release. I don't know how tight that pressure plate is supposed to be. Please someone tell me what is wrong with my truck before I start spending a lot of unnessary money buying the wrong parts.

I just had replace the clutch less than 500 miles ago and now there is a noise coming from the motor or transaxle. There is 96,000 miles on the car. I thought it might be the main bearings because that car is known for crank walk, but that did not correct the problem. It sounds like a bearing wine, could the throw out bearing have gone in 500 miles or could it be the pilot bearing. I didn't change that, and now I'm thinking I should have. There were no parts in the oil pan when I had it off either, so I think it's maybe something when I had changed the clutch. Thanks, Josh
My car has lost an extreme amount of acceleration after I accidently didnt shift all the way into second gear and it made a grinding noise but quickly fixed my problem by pushing the cluthch back in and continued on. When I try to push my car to go faster than that of a granny's pace, all the engine does is rev and goes no faster. When I do this, my car is over taken by a HORRIBLE smell. Is this a problem with my clutch or tranny.

Hello, I have a 2004 4x4 crew cab 6.0 l powerstroke 4.30 axle, that I carry a camper on. the weight of the truck w/camper is right at 15k. I have the 6 spd man. and have had no problems untill I installed the Banks exhaust and 6 gun system on this truck. Now the power over runs the stock clutch, and thats not even really cranking up on the adjustable power module. Im really conservative with the truck, but wanted the power for towing my boat or other trailer around in conjunction with the camper. Total gcvw is between 18k and19k, but now I'm afraid to try and tow with the problem already there with just the 15k truck/ camper. Is your product something that can help and if so, how much is the clutch set. Thanks, Rick Ph. 661-373-2850
Changed the master clutch cyl but still having intermittent trouble getting into gear. How do you bleed master? Cant find valve at all. Slave must be internal. Advice??
I replaced the clutch with a nw kit. The truck wouln't go into any gear with the motor running. I started it with the transmission in first and now it's stuck in first. Someone told me I may have the wrong throwout bearing? The bearing grabs when the pedal is about half way down, too much freeplay. I have the adjustment rod all the way out. I need some help!!!

It could be any of the brgs. The pilot would only make the noise when the clutch pedal was depressed. If you hear it when the clutch is starting to engage then it could be the front grg. in the transmission.
Peter
Joshua Rinke
Most definately... The clutch is toast. Replace it.

You don't...it is time to replace the clutch.

It may be the syncros in the transmission. Slow the shifting down until you can have it looked at.

When the vehicle is not running nothing is moving to stop the shifting. There is something wrong with either your hydraulics or clutch or trans.

Replace the clutch cable and see if the bracket under the firewall where the cable connects is in working order. The dealer sells a repair kit for this bracket.

You have some serious issues and should take it to a reputable garage.

If one or more of the fingers of the prssure plate are uneven it could cause this noise. Also when you push in the clutch is when the pilot brg. comes into play, it could be causing the noise as well.

The slave is inturnal but where the line goes into the bellhousing you will see a bleeder sticking out very close by. You may need to remove the bellhousing and replace the slave.

It sounds to me like you might have put the clutch disc in backwards.

That is a bumber. You may need to go to your dealer or try to fabricate one youself.

after engaging the clutch in reverse, 1st and 2nd there is a squeeking noise could this be from the throwout bearing?

I've recently been experiencing some trouble with my transmission slipping, or seeming too anyway. Umm, Sometimes when in gear, when you try to accelerate the RPMs will go up really fast. My father thinks it's the cluth plate or something. Then today, about 2 weeks after i noticed the tranny prob., there is a pool of a reddish oily fluid in the footwell of the driver's side. We traced the drippings up to behind the steering column somewhere, and not actually from the brake pedal or anything like that. Could you tell me what the prob. might be, and if the tranny prob. and the fluid could be related. Also if this could be related, i've noticed a very gassy smell recently whenever i turn the heater on. Thanks.

The radio, clock, and power mirrors have begun to work intermittently. I can start the vehicle and the clock and radio will not work. If I turn on the headlights, the clock will come on but the radio still does not work. Sometime later while I am driving, the radio will just come on. Often, it will turn off shortly thereafter. The dealer has run a diagnostic check on the system and did not find anything wrong. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
jarrod
If it were the throw out brg it would do it in all gears or out of gear (neutral). You may want to have the front brg. of the transmission looked at.

You can use two little screw drivers to shove the ring back or find a local tool truck dealer and purchase the proper tool.

It may be staying in the boot of the slave cylinder. Replace the whole system.
Peter

You first need to find out if your clutch system is hydraulic or cable. If hydraulic, the fluid could be coming from your master cylinder. I believe your dad is right about the clutch causing the slipping. If it is cable actuated it may take a simple adjustment and the red fluid is coming from something else.

I recently moved to granby, CO for the ski season and it's been very cold so far. I had the clutch on my vehicle replaced less than two years ago and I'm having a huge problem with it. My clutch pedal has become "squishy" and I can't get my clutch into gear. I don't think it's the clutch itself. Is there a possibility the pressure is gone b/c of the extreme cold and if so how do I bleed the system to get pressure back? Thanks SOOOOO much! --Stacie

I have a 1996 Ford F-150 Eddie Bower addition.A few months ago I had a clutch, pressure plate and the whole ball of wax installed including the new slave cylinder. The clutch paddle is now sticking to the floor of the truck and the truck keeps trying to pull even though I have the paddle pushed to the floor. I have checked the reservoir under the hood and it was almost full. However I noticed that the rubber boot that was in the old one is now missing from the new one. This is something that I feel the mechanic left out when changing the clutch. Will it hurt to have this rubber boot missing? With all this in mind is there a way I can adjust the clutch to prevent the truck from trying to pull when I have the clutch engaged? Just long enough to get me to a garage without having to pay a wrecker service would be fine. I appreciate any help you can offer. John Thomas

I have previously asked a question regarding whether or not my clutch or transmission had gone out and you told me it was my clutch. I took my car to the shop are sure enough it was my clutch, so I replaced it. Though this fixed my main problem of the loss of power and not being able to accelerate at higher RPMs, my car it still being overtaken by the horrible smell that I experienced before I replaced my clutch. Is this still my clutch and how bad is this "situation"?

i was wondering, i have approximately 400-450 bhp in my car at a high estimate and i was looking at your clutch line. i am looking for a high performance clutch that holds around 450 flbs of torque with some regularity and is fairly streetable. my big requirement is that it lasts 30-40000 miles. i do not put my car on the track and i dont race it frequently on the street. i was wondering if your company made a clutch that could meet those requirements. longevity and power holding are my main concerns. thank you.

My clutch suddenly, on the Interstate, stuck in the "open" or disengaged position. At first it got harder to shift, then, shifting didn't have any effect, enging just raced while in any gear. Got it towed home. Now I can put it in any gear and rev the engine. One front wheel off the ground. and it barely twitches occasionally, in gear. The slave cylinder moves normally when you press the clutch. No fluid leakage. Can shift into and out of any gear, with or without clutch, engine running any speed. No symptoms of clutch wear before this happened. It was sudden. How can a clutch stick open? Thanks, andy crosby

My internal slave cylinder is leaking for the second time in a couple of years without much use to the jeep. I need to replace it but I want to convert it to the '94 or '95 setup with the external slave cylinder. What parts do I need and is there info on how to do it. I have a mechanical brother who can help. I would also like to post info afterwards to help others.
i have a t5 tranny on my 1992 rodeo that is going bad ...i am searching for a replacement and found that there are t5 trannies for ford and gm ....i have a 5 speed 2 wheel drive with a 3.1 liter chevy v6 engine,can the tranny wether it be ford or dm work for my vehicle or is there a difference ,ive been told a t5 is a t5 anyway you slice it ,im kinda leery and want to make dure before purchasing one off ebay,thanks
We converted this 6.5 to a solid flywheel from a dual mass. We ordered the flywheel from gm and the clutch kit from Oreily's which is made for this conversion. With the bellhousing on and the engine off you can push the clutch and with a spare input shaft I can spin the clutch disc. you can take your foot off the clutch pedal and the clutch grabs like it is suppose to. You can also watch the fingers of the pressure plate flatten out so it is releasing. With the NV4500 bolted back up to the bellhousing there is no clutch. It will not release at all. With the engine running it is the same. I have also replaced the clutch mastercylinder and even put an extention on the slave cylinder to try and make it have a clutch. There is no weird noise like it may be hitting something with it running. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
