Yep, nothing ever comes easy:sad:, will try getting a hold of Chris Cole and see what he says otherwise it may be the only option to have a sleeve made to suit, thanks again mike and others who assisted :-) Cheers Michael

Allright got the driven plate fixed AP has one 265mm, AP borg And Beck no longer operate under that name. Techcraft supplies the AP one. Well got the setup tested and looks like i need 1 mm more throw than what i can currently get when my current sleeve is on, so need a new sleeve...To get...

.....Should have known just by looking at your avatar name :laugh::laugh::laugh:good one mate:thumbsup: Cheers Michael

Good points, will try and get the rig made this weekend to deteermin throw, ordered new sleeve and gaskets etc today at renault and will go with that ill adjust the throw on the slave accordingly, hopefully ill have all the parts next week so that i can get driving again :-) One thing does...

@Phil, Absolutely right about the bearing, not quite sure that its only that, do feel that i need a bit more throw to really be sure it will disengage so im going to measure how much it will take to release it per MikeP´s instructions, also in the future as the clutchplate gets worn, i think...

Dosn´t look like its a problem with the 2 fingers, they are able to move well beyond where the sleeve stops it, the sleeve has the shape of a trumpet and when the bearing gets to the end its not allowed to go any further (see pic 2) if the sleeve was straight it would be able to move further so...

Yes it is a 21turbo (un1-13 on tag) reason why it looks different is because its mated to a chevy so has a custom made chevy-renault belhousing instead of the ford one. Other than that the principles are the same but on the chevy the 2 arms only pushes the bearing the 2 are not attached so the...

Allright got it, first is of the releasebearing completly retracted, second all the way forward resting on the "lip" approx. 12 mm between the 2 and the third is of the pilot bearing where the inputshaft made its impression...

Well got the gearbox off, found that the oilspill came from the bellhousingbolts to gearbox and not from the centershaft as i expected so need to use some rtv or the like on the bolts. Another thing i found was that the release bearing sits on a sleeve and actually can´t move more than the 12...

That would have been good, but figured as much whenyou told that the 3/4 was the biggest you ended up with :-) I went and bought the 7/8 so now just waiting for it to arrive probably next week and ill see if it works if not i´m just gonna keep going til it does:thumbsup:, although have some...

:thumbsup: Allright i´m with you, still thinking about wether to go 7/8 or if its a safer bet with the larger 15/16 especially now you say that the best one you tried wasn´t good enough(what size was that?)since you had the same slave as i do, clutch setup isn´t far off from mine aswell . Michael

Allright Ian makes perfect sense, as it is i allready have 6mm or 1/4 hardpipe running through the car so if i have that i should be able to use a larger master and still have a resonable return rate, as for changing the slave and get it sleeved would set me back considerably if its 130...

Right...school is in:shy: Thanks for the explanation to both Dave and Mike appreciate it very much...just one thing i was wondering was, what benefit would there be to sleeve down the slave instead of just upsising the master?, as i can see i would get an approx. throw of 18.6mm if using the...

Hi Mike, Did some reading up online and found a bunch of stuff on this problem, especially the method of sleeving down the slave to 22mm. The push rod i had made to be adjustable allready and can actually be positioned pretty precisely and adjust movement either way, leaking shouldn´t be a...

Phil - Hadn´t thought about the break in of the clutch but it does make sense thinking about it, think ill go for a 1" master or maybe get the slave sleeved down, does anyone know what bore size the slave is (its the pjn117) cant find anything on it online other than price and just want to make...

Hi Ian, Thats the same thought i had but then again when it works it moves it the same 12 mm as when it dosn´t work, we tried it the other day when on the lift?. It might be that i´m just so close with the 12mm that its luck if it goes in or not, just found a place online where it states that...

Thanks for the input guys, thought of this aswell, and did change it from a 3/4 to the 7/8 and made it a lot better than before, but the thing i find strange is that it has worked up until now, and i can still get it to engage most gears without any grinding or noise, the problem is once engaged...

Have a problem with my newly installed Un1 13, it did work fine to begin with thoug selecting reverse has been a problem from day one, - tried different things, first off i use a 7/8 mastercylinder and original renault slave, when clutch is depressed it moves 12mm at the slave, tried bleeding it...
