Got a frustrating problem. After I bleed my clutch hydraulics, the clutch is perfect, but within about 10 miles the gear change starts to grate and gets rapidly worse. I check and the slave has fluid under the dust cover. I take the s/c apart, and bore and seal look fine.
I am not confident that the master and slave are original, they have no marks (except Lockheed on the m/c).
m/c is 16cm long (bulkhead to pipe), s/c is 7.5cm, s/c bore is 1".
Do you think I could be pressing to much pressure into the s/c, because the m/c and s/c are not a matching pair ?
Engine number is B3053469.
Any ideas greatly appreciated. |

Hi Jan, I took the slave seal out and checked it against a new one (even though it was only about 6 months old), and it was more parallel (i.e. not so conical). So I replaced it, used "rubber grease" in the bore (which I had not heard of before), and so far it is fine.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Graham, check that the seals and parts in the slave cyl are fitted correctly, not for example the wrong way round , even if it is new.
Cheers
Jan
