Excuse me but what does replacing the clutch return spring have to do with a
valve job?Why would you need a new clutch and release Bearing?Just replace the
spring.
Do your "valve job/adjustment"in the car ,it's easier.

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.
