Cluch release lever free play question


Recommended Posts

Still trying to diagnose a clutch problem, in the process of changing out the slave and master clutch cylinder, after disconnecting the clutch slave cylinder from the clutch release lever, we found the clutch release lever which is attached to the throwout bearing has no free play, does this mean the clutch is shot and something is obstructing the movement of the release lever? Any ideas? Note - I understand that if the clutch release lever was still attached the the clutch slave cylinder it is suppose to have no free play, but once detached it should move around to allow for adjustment during clutch wear.

Thanks,

VMAN

There is a little free play on the lever with a complete new clutch installed ( slave cylinder removed from the gear box ), if you don't have this play means that the clutch is worn out. The clutch pedal was heavy i presume.

Clutch pressure plate failed, so no freeplay in the clutch, thanks for the input guys.
