How do I stop my clutch pedal traveling?
You can adjust your clutch pedal. Get underneath the dash and look at where the master cylinder push rod goes through the firewall. There is a locknut on it. Loosen it, turn it (the pushrod) one way or the other for adjustment and re-tighten the locknut when done.
When do I fully engage the clutch pedal?
My clutch fully disengages with the pedal less than halfway down and doesn’t fully engage until the pedal is almost all the way to the top of its travel. I drove a friend’s 1st gen Eclipse and the friction point was much closer to the bottom of the pedal travel. It made it much easier to drive, but I didn’t feel as connected to the vehicle.
What’s the easiest way to test a clutch?
The self-adjusting clutch is one of the two types of clutch-adjustment testing methods, and it is the easier of the two. With your car engine running and your parking brake engaged, slip one foot beneath the clutch pedal and lift it upward toward you. Then, test it by depressing the pedal and putting your car in gear.
Why do I have to depress the clutch so much?
If you have to depress the clutch fully to change gears, then it releases close to the floor, you are spending more time pushing the pedal in, which would result in longer shift times, and/or riding the clutch by leaving it partially depressed between shifts. Don’t remember the book title, but it was on autocross.
What’s the difference between the clutch and flywheel?
Click to expand… If you have one of the first fleet of wrx’s then your clutch and flywheel is different then the later wrx’s. The first ones engaged much lower and were much heavier, the current clutch starts engaging halfway up and isnt fully engaged till you let off completely, its also light as hell.
