clutch /
I was wondering if there is a difference in travel needed on a 2800 lb pressure plate compared to a lighter one ? Does a heavy Duty pressure plate need more travel ?
On a friends era car , with a 428 , I am having an issue with needing more travel to dissengagee the clutch . 2nd owner The clutch does not slip , 6000 miles . Tires like new ( clames to have been driven easy ) Looking where the clutch fork goes , the condition on clutch look good .
We spent two saterdays on bleeding fluid , adjusting the master / slave linkage adjustments .The 3rd saterday we spent replacing the master cylinder / slave cylinder , still no improvement . The linkage needed to be pre loadere to get in to dissengage . This I have been told is not common .
I want to find out what I can before changing the clutch to a standered one . I do not know to much about the clutch other than it is a 2800 lb and it is a red-ish pink color
Thank you !
