clutch/pancake bearing adjustment


kjh

Recommended Posts

Running a lock up. I put in a new clutch, cable, pancake bearing. When i made the adjustment at the pressure plate and lined up the aarows on the case where the cable connects, i had to adjust the clutch lever all the way out. Didnt seem right so i took the adjustment at the pressure plate all the way in. The aarows dont line up but i have more adjustment now at the lever. Seems to be working but is this right? Am i missing something?

Mine have never lined up, I adjust with a tad bit of slack between the rod and screw and it works great.

move the lever with your hand, and the pertch lever(cable) backed off. you should be able to feel it moving the lever on the case, so you have 1/8"-1/4" of play from where it rests to where it stops again. the spring is pretty strong, but you'll still feel the adjustment. once you have that, adjust the cable so that the arrows line up. that is, if the free-play is moving past the arrows in both directions. more than 1/4" and you don't get full good release, and less and it will have to be re-adjusted at the bearing real soon, as wear/break-in will never let the load off the bearing/pusher and slip the clutch constantly.
