Chris, I was looking at the FSM and noticed those pedal adjustment specs, i dont remember ever adjusting according to something like that, the "6 teeth" seems familiar though, i will be making sure its in spec when i re install. Very possible the pedal height isnt ideal... Also i noticed o...

I’ve kept a close eye on the engine oil when I changed it and I saw hardly (if any) metallic glitter. I’ll change it again soon to check again.. The engine runs strong and has good pull when in gear…. And once it’s in gear it’s smooth, just getting it in there is rough… also 300,000 miles so really ...

Chris, I replaced the sector and paw in the pedal assembly, also bought a clutch cable (when i had initially had chatter before the first attempt to fix it) but its been difficult to confirm the length is correct with the fact that the clutch hasnt worked properly anyways. Ive noticed that when the ...

Ah okay that makes sense, I will definitely be looking into that.

Thanks Chris and Jim!

NWMO, that’s some good information thanks for bringing up the FSM. I will definitely refer to it often. This side of the clutch I had facing towards the transmission I assumed the engraving “T/M side” meant “transmission side” I don’t think it would even fit the other way. I don’t understand why you...

The throwout bearing is definitely bad and caused damage to the pressure plate, i already have new OEM bearings, new fork and will get a new clutch kit, thats not really my concern. My concern is more on why the TO bearing is going bad immediately, or was it just a bad bearing and a coincidence. Whe...

UPDATE: I pulled the trans yesterday and found that the aisin clutch kit throw out bearing was bad, lots of play. Possible the bearing was just bad from the beginning? I know people have said that they’ve received bad bearings too. My concern is could there be something in the clutch assembly that i...

you wrote: "Just by the wear on the clutch diaphragm, unless that's common wear? " it is difficult to tell in the picture how bad it is, but the tips at the center diaphragm spring is where the throw out bearing rides, and it is normal for there to be wear there. Usually just a shinny ring...

This is a great help, and i appreciate the response. I will look to buy an outer and inner ISB.

I will post my progress and if i have any issues along the way.
