Re: Clutch Issue

Got under the car today and the snubber is intact. And Howard, you are right, there is adjustment on the arm. I looked in the service index but can't find the procedure for adjusting it properly. I just put it back in the way it came out and with not changing anything other than the front motor mounts, I am guessing it should be halfway close. Is there any chance this new disc could wear in and quit chattering?? With the flywheel resurfaced, the new disc rings and I did break the glaze on the pressure plate with some really fine sandpaper before reassembling it, I guess I'm just clutching at straws here, but if there's any chance it could work itself in, I would sure give it a bit of time before tearing it all down again. I did speak with the clutch/brake outfit today, that re-sintered the clutch and they maintained that they would have relined the clutch with the same components it came to them with, that is, if it had a Marcel spring, they would have given it back to me with one. The only way I can really hold them to any account is to remove the disc and see 'what is is' and that involves a fair commitment in terms of taking the car down and disassembling everything. 'Kind of betwixt and between on this one.... anybody have any advice???? Chris.
