Clutch!

Featured Replies

my clutch pedal is way lower than my brake pedal so how do i adjest that and could that also be why my clutch is slipping so much? i have an 82 wagon if that helps. thanks

Under the hood, under your spare tire there is the clutch lever. On the lever is the clutch cable and you'll find adjuster nuts that adjust when the clutch pedel engauges the clutch. I think you will want to screw the nuts further onto the threded rod that is part of the clutch cable.

Also there should be a spring on the clutch lever that normally holds the pedel at the top most posision. This spring may have worn and your pedel might be slightly pushing on the clutch lever. Try replacing this spring or putting one of, if you don't have one. It may help your problem too. The spring is usaully pretty flimsy and doesn't need to be very strong. If its too strong it will be harder to puch the clutch pedel.

So, just play around with the adjuster nuts and some springs and see if you can get it going good again. You might have to get a new clutch if the one that is in the car has been slipping much. As most things, more slipping means more ware. Good luck with it
