Hi all,

Installed new MC in the 40. Bled. Huge difference.

Question:

I follow the pedal height spec very clearly and I follow the slave cylinder spec clearly but I just do not get what Toy means by the MC rod "free play". Is it safe to say that this corresponds to pedal play (does not make this point in the FSM)? I adjusted under that idea and it seem perfect i.e. I have play of about 3mm before I can feel the pump actuating. Cluth releases (engages) completely.

This did not rememdy the sound I hear and spoke about in an earlier post. I still think the clutch plates are not fully disengaging from the FW which is leading to that sound.

I think "freeplay" is the distance between the rod coming out of the slave cylinder and the clutchfork. There is a little acorn nut type deal on the end of it and it can be adjusted. Should be between 1/8 and 1/4, IIRC.
Good luck and congrats on your install.
