Thread: Adjusting clutch: suspected clutch drag (percentile)

Sounds to me like the clutch is not dragging in fact it sounds more like the clutch is not disengaging fully to let the box spin free from the flywheel which would keep the syncro's meshed in tight and not let you down shift

I would start by bleeding the clutch and filling with new fluid because the only real adjustment on the whole set up is between the pedal and the master cyl the push rod has adjustment and if your clutch pedal is at the right hight same as the brake and it has good feel all the way to the floor I would be bleeding it first

The slave cyls in the LT95 are a bit prone to pitting and leaking and this will case the problems your having tho if it was dragging the clutch it would be slipping under load or up hill

check the pedal free play on the clutch MC pushrod. if its got no free play then the clutch hydraulics havent been filledup properly and you may not be getting full travel down at the slave.

if you have correct free play on the pushrod then all points as put forth by lokka are appropriate.

This is a semi common problem caused IMHO by tradies who think the push rod adjustment will cure a dragging clutch issue if they wind it up tight so that it pushes the MC further. Works right up untill the SC seal weeping causes it to loose fluid which cant be replaced because the MC never opens up the fast fill port.

Thanks heaps guys, I got it all done this morning adjusted it to brake pedal height and changed fluids, this fixed the problem gearbox feels much better and can finally downshift. Thanks again...

Would really appreciate what manuals ect are worth getting... Like we're that diagram from inside came from ect????
