ok i was going for a 5 speed swap and recieved a 5 speed out of a 85 2wd efi. My pick up is 88 Carbd base model 4 speed so i bought a flywheel and clutch for the 88 thinking it would work fine i bolt everything up with no issues i try to engage the clutch and it feel like its bogging down the engine. I could not press the clutch even in netural I have no clue what i did wrong any mechs out there got a clue please drop a note
You shouldn't have any problems with those parts... as far as I know, they should all be the same. Is this your first clutch job? Was the pilot AND throw out bearing replaced? Hear anything out of the ordinary? Squealing perhaps?
You should have no issue with that selection of parts at all. Did you replace the clutch release bearing? Is it back on the clutch fork correctly?
both bearings in the clutch kit was replaced this is my second clutch job squealing does occur when the clutch pedal is pressed as the engine start to bogg out i would think there is only one way you can put the fork in
If you take the slack out of your clutch pedal, but don't disengage the clutch, is that when it squeals or only when the pedal is fully depressed, or both? And how bad does it bog? Enough to kill the engine?
Never had this issue, but who knows.... CRX Community Forum • View topic - Engine bogs when clutch is pressed
it only squeals when the pedal is pressed im not sure of slacking the clutch but only when it's pressed. Can this occur with over tighten the clutch im lost right now lol
It all point to the throw out bearing IMO. I've never heard of breaking in a throw out bearing/pressure plate, but that crx post sounded like that was the issue. If you're confident that everything is put together and everything is functioning dispite the noise and bogging, you could take it for a spin... But I think opening it back up and checking out your work is the only other option.
thanks for the info Yo i think im goingto check everything out again cause you shouldnt have to break in a bearing i guess anyway thanks
