Clutches and Flywheels

`By disengage I assume you mean you can't change gears or get it out of gear. You may be able to change gears if it is not running. If this is so, it is one of several possibilities. You have a hydrolic clutch. The master cylinder can be empty, or more likely, the slave cylinder located on the transmission housing is bad. You should be able to see the slave cylinder. Have someone push the clutch in and see if there is any movement in the slave. The clutch disc can be screwed up, but that's a long shot.

Master cylinder common failure, can be replaced with a cheap trailer brake cylinder.

Master cyliner may just need adjusting, there is an adjustable rod that goes from the top of the pedal into the master cylinder, this is visible if you open the bonnet (hood) and undo the 6 screws that are on top of the clutch pedal box.

Slave cylinder failure common

the cluth cable could be broken... i had the same problem but i bought a new one.

0010-0.014" and a normal business card serves as an easy to find gauge.

ive never worked on that truck but it should be a cable clutch. you will have to get under the truck with acouple wrenches. there should be a lever stickout of of the trans by the front of it. there will be a cable hooked to it and there should be 2 nuts near it. break them both free and tighten the other one. tighten the locking nut and boom. be carefull you dont want too much or too little adjustment because you will either be riding the clutch or it wont disengage enough

Flywheel must be torqued to 105 ft/lbs.

Clutch and pressure plate torqued to 22 ft/lbs.

if u have the belt cover witch will be were i began first u have to get the belt of witch is a easy task prop the belt up on to the secondary clutch pull the belt tords u and at the same time turn the primary clutch from the front to back now that the belt is of u need to get a clutch puller from a dealer u need 2 difrent ones one for the primary clutch and one for the secondary clutch take out the bolt in the center of each clutch insert the threaded puller in to the center of the cluth and turn it till the clutch comes of

I just replaced mine. It cost $710 plus tax. I live in the Dallas, Texas area.

Similar thing happened on my 94 Aspire. The bracket is made of several pieces of sheet steel, put together with spot welds. Every time you push the clutch the steel flexes. After so many times of pushing the clutch, the spot weld snaps from metal fatigue. I'm betting the replacement bracket you got was from a junk yard, so it too had been flexed alot. If this happened with your bracket, take the two pieces and line them up in their original position. Use vise grips to clamp them together and drill a hole for a bolt. A 1/4" bolt should be enough. Make sure it's short enough that it doesn't interfere with the travel of the the clutch or brake pedal. It's just about impossible to line up the bracket pieces and drill them when they're in place on the car. There's just not enough room to get a drill in and around everything under the dash. A flexible spring-type extension for a drill might work if you're lucky to have one. If you're a pack-rat, you saved the first bracket. You can fix that off the car and swap it out with the broken one. Either way you'll probably have to take out the one that's in the car now. You may want to think about disconnecting the negative battery terminal while fooling around under the dash. If you you slip with the drill and catch the wrong wire you could get unlucky enough to set off the airbag.

Clutch brake fluid hole doesn't make sense. Where do you fill the clutch? It's leaking and where's the leak? Try rephrasing your question.

a better way of fixing it is to find the wires going into the switch and just join them together thus bypassing the switch and the need the buy a new switch if that is the problem and the need to press the clutch at the same time

Yes.

There is no way 2 adjust the clutch. The only way is 2 replace them. Clutch & pressure plate & throw out bearing, replace them all in one shot!!

Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid with very specific properties. Transmission is also a hydraulic fluid or oil with very different properties. The two are not interchangeable with each other. Use only the fluids specified by the manufacture of your equipment.

In theory it is possible to drive your car without using the clutch. However, this could damage your cars gearbox in the long run. So its probably best to pull over and wait to be towed.

***Me as a professional TRUCK driver driving a Mack (Volvo) with a powerful tranny (Eaton Fuller) we must change gears without using clutch (only take off so 1st gear).. In order to do it has to be familiar with ur vehicle and works in certain RPM ( about 1200 -1300) in relation playing with the gas pedal, but every truck is different when rpm is decreasing from 3000 rpm is when u do and This style is called FLOWING GEARS u can shift up or shift down. to be honest this style helps alot when u r in the city..

I tried with my 2 personal cars nissal altima stick shift and a 92 manual Honda civic as well they are fun if u do it correctly other wise u will be grinding gear is not good for the tranny!! like i said it required a lot of practice and be focus on the road while u flowing gears.. U wont damage tranny if u do it correctly just play with rpm and gas pedal.

first engaged 1st gear to take off as normal then when u r about to shift up decelerated slowly with the gas pedal at the same time while u try to shift up from 1st to neutral to 2nd has to be smoothly... good luck

I used a 12 inch crescent tool turning it counterclockwise and holding the water pump pulley in place with a 13mm tool. I hope this help. Good luck.

It has a self adjusting clutch so all you need to do is get in the car lift the clutch pedal up as far as it will go (towards the dash) and then push it all the way to the ground and the clutch will adjust itself! Good Luck!

can i turbo charge my automatic rsx? Is it safe, would the engine be as potent a the type S? If so how much power can i produce" what do i need to be able to drive my car with out worring about my transmission giving away? do i need a high performance transmission. Or can i convert the manual transmission instead? would that be expensive? or just for get about the whole topic of turbo charging my engine?

The flywheel bolts on all Cats, you want to torque to 200 ft/lbs. That hasn't changed between different models of the C15 (6NZ, MBN,, ACERT, SDP, etc)

Need to know what you want to interchange them with.

You need to take it to the dealer unfortunatly
