Re: Clutch driving me crazy


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I've never heard of someone extending the slave rod to get it to release.? Most are lack of travel in the master (longer rod) that needs to be cut so it can travel further and fully engage the slave.

check on rennlist about modifying the master.?

How about the release bearing, you did press in a new bearing.? Is that "spinning" ok?

Just tossing out some ideas as like Colin noted, usually it's the discs when there's chatter, but the early dual discs engage higher and slower than the single discs, so pedal/master/slave travel sometimes affects how the system grabs.?

My 79 has all original discs etc, I added a new slave and I can feel the grabiness (is that a word :D) due to it just being resurrected after sitting for better part of 20 years.? The more I drive, the better it seems to operate.

Not a spec clutch kit. Factory parts with discs from 928intl. New slave and master.? Extended the slave rod to get positive release (matched old slave)

Are these the Spec clutch components?

Have you done all the hydraulics?? Clutch master and slave??

How does the pedal feel when engaging and dis-engaging?

Is there a break-in procedure from Spec (if these are Spec)?


The double disc clutches can be a pain, but getting the intermediate plate pinned is a good start.?

Another thought, on some of the early double discs, there is a "front" and "back" disc.? Does the spec have front and back, or are they both the same?

Hey group.?
I've reached the end of my patience rope with this 928.?
I have replaced or resurfaced all of the components of the clutch. I still get a chatter on engagement.? The intermediate plate is pinned and straighted. New clutch discs. Resurfaced flywheel and brand new pressure plate.?
I'm looking to see if there is a local expert that can help with the diag on this in the tacoma area. I'm clearly missing something.?
