Brian, you are right, it's better to correct this : the spring (fingers) are
working in a wrong range and it's possible the disc won't disengage and the
clutch will fail after some time. When mounting and tightening the pressure
plate, the fingers should move inward no more than 2 or 3mm.
You can correct this by putting washers between the six feet of the PP and the
flywheel. These washers ought to be hard steel : shims, not common mild steel
washers.

Onderwerp: [Fot] laycock clutch question
Hey Friends
just installed a new to me (rebuilt) laycock PP and a new clutch disc. As I
tightened the PP the fingers ended up pretty much flat across, no longer
peaked. So when the hydraulics is engaged the throw out will press the clutch
fingers deflecting inward (invert from when on the bench). Makes me
uncomfortable / doesn't seem right.
Normal / Correct?
am hoping to put the trans back in tomorrow afternoon, comments please
Thanks
Brian
