This used to be my car, I gave it to my son last year and I drove it today. I don't remember it being so high up to grab, I suspect he's riding it or letting it out too slow. | | | 03-14-2011, 07:59 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Gulfport, Florida Posts: 3,208 | A clutch that is bleed good will start to grab or catch right at the top of the pedal. If it's not slipping and is not worn out it should be fine. Mine catches at the last inch of the pedal. If you don't like it that way put a clutch pedal stop in there. I made one for like $2. I make the pedal stop going down 1 inch after it dis-engages then I know when I come up 1 inch it will engage so I only have 2-3 inch travel on my pedal. Makes for a nice feel on your clutch pedal John S | | | 03-14-2011, 10:17 PM | #5 | Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Monroe, CT Posts: 41 | Thanks for the replies, I guess that's just the way it is. I forgot how much fun the car is to drive, I've got some good winding backroads to get to work and it's fun to push the revs up and be stuck to the road like I'm on rails. | | | 04-21-2011, 04:07 PM | #6 | Junior Member Join Date: Apr 2011 Location: Seattle Posts: 10 | I installed a clutch stop to limit the travel of the pedal. (Had to also adjust the pedal switch). Much better now. Clutch begins engaging just off the bottom. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
