T5 Clutch Adjustment
 
I recently got my Cobra on the road & noticed the clutch slips in second & third gear when I get on it a little.

I'm using a T5 with a CNC hydraulic push type slave cylinder & Tilton master cylinder/pedals. The clutch disc/pressure plate are stock components, the throw-out bearing is non-hydraulic.

My question is should I adjust that slip out now or drive it easy for a few hundred miles then see how it is? Is there a "wear in" period on new clutch/pressure plates?

Thanks for the help.

There is a break in period on some clutches...

As for this one, I'd check to make sure it's adjusted correctly.

How do you adjust a hyd clutch? Seems like mine with 400 miles now it does not go in far enough, already re-bleed the thing.

What exactly are the symptoms?

It is not going in far enough, it just started yesterday. So you can't put it in gear. It has to be the slave cyl. adjustment?

When you push the clutch in, it's not fully engaging the clutch? Sounds like air in the line.
