springs in cover plate are shot. the pressure plate flatens out with good
s-pring tension. Make sure the spring fingers are compressing slightly when
tightening the cover plate.

<span>Looking for some clutch help. I recently disassembled a quarterm=
aster Pro 7.25 single disc clutch, not from my car. I have no experience wi=
th this style of clutch. Upon disassembly I observe that the flywheel inser=
t, clutch disc and pressure plate only have had contact on the outer 3/8 &#=
34; diameter.  Upon further investigation the flywheel insert surface =
is flat. The clutch surface thickness is uniform but if I lay a straight ed=
ge across the face of the Quartermaster pressure plate  it cups outwar=
d. My initial thought was "bingo" this would cause the wear pattern=
I am observing. Must be something out of whack with the pressure plate ins=
ert.  I contacted quartermaster and described what I saw and they were=
not much help other than "something must be warped". I was getting=
ready to order a replacement pressure plate insert but I stopped over to J=
ason's shop and saw that he was working on a car that also ran a quarte=
rmaster Pro 7.25 clutch but this was a double disc. I took it apart and all=
components had even wear across the faces as one would expect.  I lay=
ed a straight edge across the pressure plate out of this assembly expecting=
to see a flat contact surface and was surprised to see the same cupped con=
dition where the outer pressure plate surface would contact the clutch disc=
first as the one at home. Now I am at a loss as to what would cause this i=
mproper wear pattern. Any experience with this?</span>
