Subject: [tcb] Clutch spring. another part I never thought about.

So, Murray's clutch pedal would not come back all the way up and it would be
like the clutch is slipping until I pulled it back up with my toes. 

 

I lubed everything and loosened and tightened the pedal arm. I adjusted the
clutch cable until it was too tight and the pedal would still not come up
all the way. 

 

So, I called Chuck and he confirmed that there was only the one spring.

 

So, in true Arkie tech fashion I drove a drywall screw between the screw and
the clutch lever at the transmission and . everything works perfectly.
Freaking $2.25 spring.

 

Has anybody ever replaced the spring? Can I do it without pulling the
transmission? The Wolfgang website says there is a clip that holds on the
lever.

 

If I have to pull the engine then I'll have to do the valve job and if I get
into the tranny then I need a new pressure plate and throw out bearing..

 

Maybe I won't make Nacogdoches.
