Reply to "Mangusta Clutch Help please!..."

Paulo,

While the car is on the lift, activate the clutch lever manually to see that it moves freely!

IF IT DOES NOT MOVE FREELY DO NOT FORCE IT!!!!! You'll bust more expensive parts!

Now to tell some truths here!!!

1)The stock slave cylinder was used on Fiat MULTIPLA and some Maseratis. IT IS A MIRROR IMAGE of a FIAT X1/9! You can use X1/9 slave cylinders for parts to rebuild your original. The pushrod can also be used.

2) THE CLUTCH DISC IS NOT FROM A CHEVY!!! It has a special hub clearanced on the engine side so that it clears the special pilot bushing adapter used on the Goose! IT uses a CHEVY spline count.../size....

3) the FLYWHEEL and PRESSURE PLATE CAN BE from a MUSTANG as stated. I used a 10.5" diameter disc....but you may find a 10" disc in your car according to the parts book.......

(If the clutch was working fine before this pushrod broke, the disc is probably not at issue. The pressure plate may have issue.....but check to see that the main lever moves freely as suggested above.)

Hope this helps!
Steve
