Hi Guys,
was busy showing a vz ss how it is done tonight, and i rooted my clutch (but tought the lesson well, so it was worth it). I'm a bit puzzled cos i have not had a clutch go like this b4, was wondering if any one could shed some light.
I shifted REAL hard from 2nd into 3rd, and then casually into 4th (i think... cant rly remember, could have stayed in 3rd??) and cruised along at the posted speed limit (truly ). After cruising from south road, to marion road where the light was red, i went to gear down and there was no pedal at all... it was stuck flush against the firewall . I pulled around a corner, matched the revs so it could come out of gear smoothly, and called a tow truck (thanks RAA! , but ouch! my front bar copped a durability test from the the way it was loaded).
I Can pull the pedal back out, and it has a bit of tension, but it just goes back to the firewall if u depress it, but the clutch does not engage. Odd thing is (as far as i am concerned) there was no slippage or anything else to alert me something was goin on... till i went for the pedal
I have never had a clutch go like this... usually they just turn to mush, so i am wondering if i have fuxd something else?
Its an ogura twin plate, and was biting hard as ever just before this happened.
Also, although i can do it, i dont wanna... any recommendations on who is good for a clutch replacment/fkd something else repair? **im in brighton btw
cheers
