| Post subject: | clutch pedal giving me a headache |
I was driving my talon around today and it was feeling fine at first after a while I noticed the pedal didnt go down as far as it used to. I pushed down a little harded and noticed there was still some more travel if I pushed hard enough. As soon as I did that when I pushed the pedal down the gears became hard to put in, kinda like putting the gears in with out the pedal in. I just changed the slave and master cylinders an the fluid is where its supposed to be. Any suggestions? It sucks not being able to fix it myself and don't have cash to continuously fix it so........ you guys might see my talon on craigslist soon if I can't get this fixed. |

Check the fork position if the fluid isn't low. |

Don't want to sound like an ass but are you sure you bled the system correctly? |

sounds like you may have pulled the fork off the pivot ball some how. do as christ said and check the fork position and see if it has excessive movement with the slave cylinder off. |

Is the fork hitting the bell housing when your clutch pedal is pressed down? |

hey thanks for all the advise guys, it wasnt as hot today so my friend helped me check the car out. Turned out to be the part of the clutch master cyl that goes through the firewall was bent and not pushing far enough. Anyone seen this before? what happened to it haha? |

Post a picture but off the top of my head, unit being insecure or your pedal assembly being jacked up comes to mind. |
