its not the baring, its the transmission. its got very old gears.
There are three common problems which are causing your car to stall when the clutch is engaged. These problems are either a worn out clutch plate, a warped pressure plate or disc, or a damaged throw out bearing.
TORQUE CONVERTER IS A LIKELY CAUSE
Yes it is most likely the clutch release bearing and i would say 400 to 600 is about normal for clutch replacement.
Clutch throw out bearing bad.
When the clutch is adjusted properly the throw-out bearing is COMPLETELY disengaged as soon as you take your foot off the clutch. A throw-out bearing that is lightly touching the pressure plate can often make noise, especially if the bearing is getting ready to go. Make sure the clutch is properly engaged. There should be about an inch of play at the top of the pedal throw. Also make sure all of the springs are in place, pulling the clutch forks off the bearing.
Most likely, the clutch or the clutch pilot bearing is dragging. This is caused by clutch hydraulic leaks not letting the clutch fully disengage or the clutch pressure plate/disc/flywheel is warped. Crawl under the car, (engine off)have a friend push/release pedal, see if slave cylinder throw seems adequate and look for leaks. If throw is short, problem is in the clutch hydraulics; if throw is normal, problem is the clutch.
It has a hydraulic operated throw out bearing.
Make sure clutch, pressure plate, and throw-out bearing are all in alignment
The clutch Throw Out Bearing is going bad.
No. The clutch is cable-actuated from the pedal assembly to the throw-out/release bearing fork asembly. There is no hydraulic assist in the clutch system.
The clutch bearing or " throw out" bearing is going bad and will need to be replaced, take this opportunity to change the clutch as well.
yes it will run because the throw out bearing has nothing to do with the motor it's in the clutch.
