How to adjust a clutch on a 1996 Subaru?
If it has a hydraulic clutch, I believe they can not be adjusted. When the pedal travel is no longer acceptable the clutch disc must be replaced.
Is it normal for a 2004 r1 clutch engaging into gear so late like 75 before releasing?
I think you are asking about excessive clutch lever travel. The clutch lever should have about 3mm of free play between the lever and the yoke. The bite should be between half an 2/3rds of outward travel. On a cable clutch you can normally adjust out the slack to produce the above result. If not or there is excessive travel on a hydraulic clutch you are looking at clutch springs or excessive plate wear.
How do you adjust the clutch on your 91 Harley Softail?
First loosen the cable adjuster to give as much slack as possible (basically you're shortening the cable sheath). Then remove the derby cover (large round dome-shaped cover on the chaincase). In the center of the clutch you'll see the adjuster screw with a locknut. Loosen the locknut with an 11/16 wrench and back the adjuster screw out a couple of turns using a 7/32" Allen wrench. Now turn the adjuster screw inward (clockwise) until it bottoms out, but not real hard. Then back the screw out 1/2 to 3/4 turn and while holding the adjuster screw in that position with the Allen wrench, tighten the locknut securely. Put the derby cover back on. Now adjust the cable so that there's 1/16" to 1/8" (less is better) of play between the ferrule (that's the cable's "collar" at the lever end) and the lever bracket. To get an accurate reading, use one hand to pull the sheath away from the lever bracket while working the lever back & forth with the other hand. Many people like to adjust their clutch cable so that the clutch engages/disengages when the lever's very close to the grip (so they don't have to reach their fingers as far), but that can cause clunky shifting and difficulty finding neutral because the clutch needs as much travel as possible for the clutch plates to fully separate (disengage). You want the very minimum of free play in the lever, in other words the lever should move only a tiny amount before the clutch starts to disengage. The only reason you need any free play at all is so there's no undue stress on the throwout bearing (located on the right end of the clutch pushrod). Don't adjust your clutch for comfort, adjust it for performance. At least 80% of all Harley shifting problems are caused by clutch drag from improper adjustment.
Just replaced clutch in 2003 Hyundai Tiburon Clutch pedal will not go to floor to disengage clutch or work neutral safety switch Help?
It sounds as if the clevis connector for the clutch master cylinder may be incorrectly adjusted too far out. Removing the cotter retaining pin and the pin that attaches the clevis to the clutch pedal and turning the adjustment nut to shorten the clutch 'travel' should fix the problem. (or if you had a shop do the clutch replacement, bring it back to the shop and have them correctly adjust the clutch master cylinder travel) Hope this helps
What could be the result of having no free travel at clutch pedal?
You will wear your clutch prematurely. With no play, it means that there is lack of pressure on the clutch plate thus allowing it to slip; slippage causes wear.
How do you know if you have a bad clutch on a 1964 beetle?
The clutch pedal will have more play in it before catching. A good clutch catches near the floor, while a bad clutch must travel further for the clutch plate to meet the flywheel. If the pedal travels close to the top of it's path, then the clutch is probably wearing low.
Why clutch pedal still high after new clutch?
I'm assuming you mean why does the clutch still engage at a high point after replacement; When you replace your clutch it is normally due to it being burnt out from overheating or from extensive wear of the flywheel. Long travel in the clutch pedal is caused by extensive wear on the flywheel, so if it was replaced due to being burnt out, replacement will not alter the travel (the distance between plates has not changed). Either that or the mechanic who replaced it did not properly adjust it.
How do you adjust the clutch on a 1995 Suzuki sidekick It slips bad?
If the clutch adjustment is correct, so that the clutch takes halfway through its travel, then it's time for a new clutch pressure plate/clutch plate/throwout bearing combo. One other reason might be grease on the existing clutch plate due to sloppy mechanic assembly.Or a combination of the two. New clutch time!
