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.
i have fitted a new clutch, clutch fork, flywheel,clutch master & clutch slave cylinders the problem is i cannot get a pedal after bleeding the slave cyl,there is no air in the system & i still cannot get a good enough pedal help????
You can tell by how much higher the clutch pedal is to the brake pedal. when new pedals are at the same height.
Clutch drag is when the clutch pedal is fully depressed and the clutch is still partially engaged. When the clutch pedal is released or in the up position the engine is connected to the transmission input shaft. When the pedal is depressed or in the down position the engine is disconnected completely from the transmission. When the clutch drags it is still partially attached to the engine. A dragging clutch can cause a glazed flywheel and premature failure of the clutch. It will also cause the syncros to work twice as hard to slow down or speed up a gear inside the transmission when shifting. Basically syncros will wear out faster than normal and may not work properly depending on how bad the clutch drag is.
just disconect the master cylinder from the pedal it should just be on with a cotter pin and then there is a long bolt going through the brake and clutch pedal take the nut off the and and bring the bolt out just far enough to get the clutch pedal out. the clutch pedal might be hard to get out just play with it youll get it eventually. then to install the new one just put the bushings on the new one and do everything again but in reverse. hope this helps
You may need a new clutch.
Rotate the switch on the rod for the master cylinder for the clutch. Take out the retaining clip. Remove the clutch pedal position switch from the rod. Disconnect the electrical plug. Plug the new clutch pedal position switch in and installation is the reverse of removal
Clutch plates are sticking - get your clutch checked you might need a new one
low or out of fluid (new car) classic car linkage may have broken
Sounds like you need a new clutch. Or at the very least the clutch pedal free play needs adjustment.
Bleed the slave cyl. It probebly has air in the line or no fluid.
First you need to make sure that all the air is bleed out of the slave cyinder. Then to adjust the point at which the clutch will engage, tighten or loosen the pushrod nut. It will be near the clutch pedal on a little rod between the firewall and pedal (the pushrod).
turn your car on and pump the peddel with your hand till u get pressure then get a new clutch and master cylinder for the clutch
