Best Answer

The pressure plate which forces the friction disc against the flywheel by means of spring plates. Pressing the clutch pedal down forces the pressure plate away from the friction disc and power transfer from engine to transmission is broken.

How do you adjust the clutch on a 1990 Toyota Camry?

Well, I am in the process of figuring this out but, there is a threaded push rod attached to the clutch pedal which has a lock nut right at the back of the clutch where the rod attaches to the pedal. I assume that releasing the locking nut and rotating the push rod will adjust the pedal action up or down and change the engagement point. Looks pretty straight forward.
