Well I am from Sweden so I might not understand you correct, but check the Rod beteenden the clutch fork and the u svivel this is connected to at the other End. Mine was assembled wrong when I bought it, at the u svivel, which resulted in a poor leverage, ie clutch travel when pedal had full travel.

I have to correct myself.

It was the hook at the End of the clutch pedal shaft that was engaged om the outside of the u svivel, so that the u svivel leaned backwards when cluth was engaged. Ie givIng very poor clutch travel vs pedal travel

See 4th picture from the bottom

Hola Ben, tengo problemas para meter las velocidades sin que rasque, piso el pedal hasta el fondo para meter la marcha pero rasca y cuesta meterla , una vez esta dentro suelto el pedal y no se mueve hasta soltar el pedal casi del todo, lo que es contradictorio

Hi Guys,
Our friend Capelo from Spain is having some problems with his clutch & he's looking for some help or advice.


" I'm having problems controlling the speeds without scraping the pedal on the floor. It's hard to get it in gear. One other time I pushed the pedal almost all the way to the floor before it moved. This is the contradiction I'm facing".


I think he's experiencing a "scraping" sound when he tries to engage the clutch.


Any thoughts?

I remember he had some issues with his clutch linkage. It sounds like it needs adjusting. See Jimcar's comments.

Hey Jimmy,
Can you post the link again to your site - that points to the clutch issues?


I tried the link posted above & it went to your site but nothing clutch related that I could see.


Thx

I have fixed my link


Actually my link was a nother one showing the clutch shaft hook not in the right place, Should be engaged in the hole of the u-bracket, but you link work as well.

The 4:th picture from the bottom in my link is not showing the exact problem I had when I bought it, but the behaviour was close to the same as capelo describes, the hook was missplaced like in the picture but on the other side of the bracket.

However I think Capelo has posted pictures of his linkage earlier and if I remeber correct he had done it right???

Hola Capelo,
Arreglaste todo? Entiende la respuesta de Jim desde Suecia?
Si sus problemas queda toma una foto de su embrague y dejanos ver lo.


Espero que todo esta funciona bien.


"Hi Capelo, Is everything fixed? Did you understand the answer from Jim in Sweden?
If your problems remain please post a pic of your clutch so we can see it. I hope everything
is working good. "
