Ok..

got the clutch for a few months now..but haven't been driving much 'cos i catch the freaking tram to work (CBD no parking) the most boring part of my day!!!.

anyway.. i am sort of glad that most of you reckon the clutch fews soft..which kinda rule out the malfunction question.

I went back to the guys that fitted it, they adjusted the clutch, got a bit harder but still very light..

changing gear is getting very hard, especially 2nd.. have to wait for the rev to drop all the way down before i can hit 2nd..it fews like the clutch does disengage properly..

i put in redline oil like what most of you guys here says one should do..but gear change is still shite!..

the people that put the clutch in..have no idea why..aparently master cylinder is still good..

internal problems?

what does the spigot bush do? because they didn't change that.. could that be the problem..

can you guy recommend a good gearbox specialist..?

spigot bearing wouldnt affect it...i left my old one in and its all good. They may have adjusted the clutch in someway that your not getting the full stroke outta the pedal inorder to fully disengage the clutch...or your lines may need bleeding if for whatever reason they removed the lines from the slave cylinder. If they did bleed it then they may have missed the intermediate valve thats half way between the master cylinder and the slave cylinder, its on that block mounted on the chassis rail. It may only be half bled and once again not letting you get the full travel to fully disengage the clutch.

oh yeh also, the spigot bush/bearing supports the end of the input shaft from the gearbox in the ass of the crankshaft.

There is a few thoughts for ya to check.
