simplicity, ease of maintenance (no lubricating cables), better feel (because usually cables need to be lubed and therefore have much friction), more reliable. Disadvantage is it's expensive, hard to bleed, occasionally master and slave cylinders needs rebuilding. Overall, hydraulic is the way to go.
no, it has a mechanical linkage style clutch operation.
It seems that mechanical linkage has less probabilities of damages or malfunction because it's simpler than hydraulic systems.Hydraulic systems are self adjusting. (The self adjusting system may become inoperative or damaged too)
The Ls has a hydraulic clutch mechanism
You don't. They use either a linkage or a hydraulic clutch.
If the clutch is hydraulic, yes. If the linkage is mechanical, no.
If it has a hydraulic clutch I'd suspect a leak in the master or slave cylinder. If it isn't a hydraulic clutch I'd check the linkage.
It is likely that you had to dismantle your hydraulic clutch to do the work so.Is there air in the hydraulics?Is the linkage and clutch release bearing assembled correct.Is there a hole in the hydraulicsIf it is a cable or mechanical linkage is it assembled correctly?
Several causes are possible, including:Low hydraulic clutch fluid. Check this first since it's a cheap and easy fix.Air in the hydraulic clutch lines.Faulty clutch master or slave cylinder.Worn out, damaged, or faulty clutch.Bent or damaged mechanical clutch linkage.
If it's a hydraulic clutch, try bleeding the slave cylinder. Manual linkage, try adjusting the clutch. If no help, something's wrong with the pressure plate and you need a new clutch.
It depends on the type of clutch linkage. If it's mechanical linkage the clutch could be worn and the rod dropped out. If it's a hydraulic clutch, the clutch master or slave cylinder could be worn out.
no adjustment on the 5speed manual transmission with overdrive. hydraulic clutch
Yes, it does have a hydraulic clutch Yes, it does have a hydraulic clutch
