proxlamus© Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Well.. as if my stretched rivets on the ACT pressure plate and now mis-drilled holes on my fidanza aluminum flywheel weren't enough.. my 1977 factory 5-speed now has a broken front cover which overlays the transmission input shaft. Basically the release bearing (throwout bearing) and the throwout collar slides back and forth on this front cover shaft... It might explain the noise I was hearing and the pulsating vibrations felt through the clutch pedal. What causes this? I don't know. How do I prevent this? I don't know. anyone have any ideas??

TrumpetRhapsody Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 The faulty pressure plate is probably to blame. It shouldn't happen with a properly functioning setup. I'd say once you get your new PP just replace the cover pretend it didn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
