Can anyone tell me how much force is needed to manually disengage a clutch? I have just mated my tranny and engine and attempted to work the clutch fork lever to no avail, the fork moves freely until

Hi Brad, If you put a 2' piece of pipe over the clutch arm you should be able to disengage the clutch by pulling back on the end of the pipe. You will of course have to lay the engine on its side to

The clutch on my BJ8 is smooth and requires only slightly more pedal force than the clutch on my late model Mustang. Though I haven't tried it myself, I think your attempts to test the clutch by manu

Trying to move the clutch arm with your hands is very difficult. I doubt there's any hang up. If you stood on top of the clutch housing when it was out, you would understand why. Best Regards, Alan

I have no clutch! The pedal goes to the metal! If I pump it 5 - 10 times, I might be able to shift it into gear. I'm not losing any fluid. Oh yes, it's a BN4 with separate clutch & brake fluid cylind

Have someone pump the pedal while you watch the fluid level in the reservoir. If it goes up when the pedal goes down the fluid replenishment seal is shot. If not, it's either the master or slave seal

You can't hone the slave cylinder - it is aluminum with a specially treated hardened interior surface. If you hone it, it will only last for a few months. If the interior surface is worn, the only s

Make sure the clutch slave hose hasn't just gone soft causing it to balloon instead of passing the fluid along the line. You may just need a new clutch slave hose. Rich _____________________________

This is a fairly straight forward DIY job. Take out master and slave cilinder, dismantle, clean and inspect them. If some crud is present in the bores you can polish this away using some metal polish

Good question. I have always assumed the bores were treated, since they have a slick, shiny surface which isn't characteristic of untreated aluminum, which is usually porous and dull in appearance. A
