Davemate Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Changed the seals on the clutch master and I've pulled the slave apart and put it back as the seal seems good, I intend to get a new slave tomorrow thoughWhat can cause the pedal to "judder" it's almost impossible to pull away smoothly from standstill, could it just be a dodgy slave cylinder or could I have broken taper pin ?The slave's piston seems to be within the normal position when operating( it's not almost popping out) I have about 1" of travel in the gearbox arm if pushed back towards the slave cylinder with the pushrod disconnected Thoughts please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nang Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Suggest you have a look at the engine / gearbox mounts. Maybe u/j's or loose flange bolts too.Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferny Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Judder as it it feels like the clutch is grabbing and releasing? Could be contaminated friction plate or a burnt flywheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davemate Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Tony Mr Radders reckons I have a gearbox mount gone as I have a knock coming from that area I'll be checking that out today Pete, Not sure mate Pedal goes down smoothly to the bottom but when you raise it slowly it's squeaks and comes up with a juddering movement. The clutch suddenly bites so I suppose it could be the clutch springs/ fingers not moving in a smooth action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davemate Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 The judder seems to happen once the car has been driven for a while, so when thing have got warmed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krusty2000 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hi DaveFrom my experience clutch judder after a run is oil leaking on to the clutch plate, the oil normally leaks from either the gearbox input shaft or the rear crank shaft seal sometimes both.

Davemate Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 For now I think I'll have to just live with, it will get sorted when the engine comes out to have its "pi" cam fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
