How big should the clutch be on a Saturn s?
Much easier if you have a hoist to run the car up and down. Assuming that you don’t so try and get the car as high into the air as you can, SAFELY OF COURSE. 15-18 inches between the rear subframe and the floor is probably a good compromise.
Do you need a Haynes Manual to replace a Saturn clutch?
These instructions are a conglomeration of several other how-to documents, Saturn FSMs, shop manuals, online postings and other sources of information. These instructions should not be considered a stand alone document and should be used in conjuction with an FSM, Haynes, or Chiltons manual.
Where are the clutch cables on a Saturn FSM?
The cables are attached to the shifter tower by small clips that should just slide off. To disconnect them from the bell housing just pull back slightly and then lift through the slot. (There is an excellent diagram in the Saturn FSM if you have one.)
Can you remove the slave cylinder from a Saturn clutch?
Remove the clutch slave cylinder. Do NOT disconnect the hydraulic lines. The Saturn clutch hydraulics are a closed system and are not meant to be serviced. If you accidentally pull one of these lines you will need to buy new hydraulics from Saturn. Do NOT step on the clutch with the slave cylinder removed.
Why do I have no pressure on my Clutch?
If there is no pressure at all, most likely the throw-out bearing fork rod or the linkage to it broke. If a pressure plate is worn, or t/o bearing bad, flywheel scorched, all that you would sttill feel pressure on the petal.

What did I do when my Clutch did not work?
So, the long story short, my clutch did not work at all. I went to Pick and Pull, picked up a separate small clutch reservoir from some older car for $2, installed it nearby the brake/clutch reservoir of my car and corked the existing clutch fluid outlet.
What causes a petal to fall out of the clutch?
Check linkage. sometime the rod that pushes the t/o rod fork will fall out of the rod. It’s not attached, held in place only by spring pressure. Easy fix if that’s the case, caused by out of adjustment. Good luck , hope that’s all it is. Worst case all pressure plate componets destroyed and nothing to give petal something to push
