Hi again,
I fitted my new engine and I'm in the process of running it in. The only thing I didn't change or rebuild was the gearbox and clutch. Now I bottom out my pedal and when I shift to 2nd gear that nasty crunch happens . I attached a picture showing the pedal engaged and disengaged. Is it safe to back off the throw nut to give it a little more travel? And ofcourse lengthen the push rod/bend the arm preventing the pedal bottoming out?
I checked the clevis pin on the arm and there is no play on it.
There's a little play on the clevis pin on the clutch pedal where it meets the master. (can this be significant?)
I also bled the hydrolics to no avail.
Pedal feels smooth all the way.
Clutch plate didn't seem to be worn out during rebuild.
Thanks!
