The clutch arm is like a teeter-todder. The clutch arm sits on a pivot point in the transmission bell housing and disengages the clutch by pushing down on the pressure place through a "throw out" bearing when the clutch pedal is pushed down.

How do you get the clutch pedal to work again after replacing the clutch on a Mazda 323f?

The clutch pedal is spring retrun and I assume that when you changed the clutch you had removed the adjustign screw and pivot from the cable. Ensure that the clutch pedal is in the raised position and that the clutch thow-out arm moves freely. If the arm does not move freely then the poblem is internal and you'll have to pull the transaxle again (hopefully not!) Feed the threaded end of the clutch cable through the throw-out arm, reattach the pivot and adjusting screw. until the pivot contacts the arm. Push the throw-out arm towards the front of the car adn adjust the knurled nut until there is a 3 mm gap between the pivot and the arm. Test the clutch by depressing the pedal and check that the cable is pull;ing the throw-out arm. Next start the car, select first gear and slowly release the clutch pedal until you feel the clutch enage, it should be about 2/3's the pedal travel off the floor before engagement.

That rod is supposed to go from your clutch slave cylinder to your clutch arm. If you do not have that rod in place then your clutch will not disengage when you press the clutch pedal to the floor. You must remove the slave cylinder to install the slave/clutch arm push rod.


Is it hard to change a shift cable on a VW Fox?

It is tricky to change the clutch cable. There is a clip that holds it on the clutch pedal and it hooks over the clutch arm down by the bellhousing on the other end. The clutch arm is fairly easy to access and remove the cable from the engine compartment. The clutch pedal end took a little while. I had to undo the fuse box and let it hang to acces the pedal arm. The cable hooks on this end also, but has a little clip that holds it on the arm. Once the cable is unfastened from the arm, you can pull it out through the firewall. Installation went better than removal for me, a little adjusting after its in and youre all set! Good luck!


Where is the slave cylinder located on a 1997 suzuki sidekick?

Answer: Normally located down by clutch arm (that sticks out between the engine and transmission). How do you locate it? The clutch pedal depresses a clutch master cylinder on the firewall (driver side). Follow the hose line down to the where the clutch arm is located. NOTE: don't get the brake master cylinder and clutch master cylinder confused, its easy if you do not work on cars regularly.
