Squib308 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I'm checking the clutch pedal position - the FSM says to align the seat with the 7th notch position from the very front. Notch position? I don't have manual seats that lock back at certain positions, it's you know, a motor that moves the seat. Or is the notch somewhere else? What am I missing here? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnyaya Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Ths FSM also specifies distances,135mm of pedal travel if I'm remembering right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Never mind the seat position when adjusting the clutch. Just make sure that you have some free play for the clutch arm so the bearing don't wear out prematurely and room for some clutch wear while you also have a sufficient stroke to completely disengage the clutch.

1-3-2-4 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I've got a stage two clutch and it kinda drives me nuts because I have very little free play before it engages maybe about 1" before it starts to grab from being fully depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Usually the "free play" is counted from the pedal unpressed until it gets in contact with the clutch arm/bearing. That movement is what you usually count on when you adjust the clutch. If you count from the other end - fully depressed and releasing until it engages then you have a strange setup that would be hard to drive.

The other end is fine it's just how the clutch must be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
