Why does a Clutch disk stuck to the flywheel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A clutch disk can get stuck to the flywheel due to rust or corrosion between the clutch disk and flywheel surface. This can happen if the vehicle has been sitting for an extended period without use or if water has entered the clutch housing. Additionally, overheating of the clutch components can cause the materials to stick together.

How do you change a clutch cable on a Harley Davidson?

With the installation of new cables, there should be no need to adjust the clutch itself if the clutch was OK before hand. You need the 1/8 to 1/16 at the handle after you are done which is gotten by the adjustment in the cable itself. Really easy to do.

Drain the trans fluid first so it doesn't get messy. The cable change requires removal of the trans side cover (6- 1/4 " bolts) If you cut the short end of the Allen wrench down just long enough to seat in the bolt head, you can remove the trans end cover without removing the exhaust by breaking them loose and threading them out by hand. Leave them in the cover and just lift the cover off and up over the exhaust. You can then see the cable end and how it attaches inside the cover. You may be able to unhook it from the ball ramp if you disconnect the upper end first from the handle with the extra slack in the cable. To do this you remove the "c" clip on the underside of the handle perch that holds the pivot pin for the handle in , remove the pivot pin and slide the handle out of the perch after you give it all the slack in the cable adjuster. You'll see the slot in the perch where you slip the cable through to remove the cable from the handle. Replace the clutch cable with the replacement fastenings and routing it the same way as it was previously and grease up the handle pivot pin when reinstalling. Screw the cable end with the "O" ring on it back into the trans end cover like the old one was. Replace the trans fluid after you get it buttoned up and adjust the cable free play as stated above.You can usually get away with reusing the trans cover gasket if the bike is fairly new and hasn't been apart before. It may be a good idea to lube the new cable when you install it being it is all apart now.

I think this covers it but a factory manual would be a great investment if you don't have one.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on a 1999 zx2?

Asked by Wiki User

There no adjustments possible to the transmission, the only thing that you can adjust on a manual transmission type is the clutch pedal height. If the transmission is not functioning properly, you might have to get a professional to check it out. There are many questions to ask about this. How long since your last clutch changeout, have you checked the clutch master cylinder operation, how about the slave master cylinder, are all the hoses intact, no leaks, no clogs, last time you changed the Brake fluid(you do know that it is shared with the transmission)? I could go on!

How do you put a clutch on a lawn mower engine?

Asked by Wiki User

I do not have too much experience, but on my mower, their is a lever you push to engage the blades. The lever tightens the belt enough that the engine starts to turn the blades. Maybe you could do this on your lawnmower. I do not have too much experience, but on my mower, their is a lever you push to engage the blades.
