I posted last week about having trouble bleeding my clutch. Last week I aerated the fluid using my mityvac and could not bleed the system properly. Tonight I used the gravity method and once I verified I had flow, I closed the bleeder and had my son push the pedal to the floor and then opened the bleeder. I did this 4 times in succession until only fluid came out (it actually was good on the second try but I wanted to be certain) The reservoir never went dry during this I made certain. I was able to see the slave cylinder piston move to the end of its internal bore with the rubber boot pulled away (I am guessing about an inch of travel after bleeding). I reinserted the slave on the trans and actuated the clutch pedal, with the pedal on the floor, I am only getting about 3/8 to 1/2 inch of travel total. I adjusted the slave end "bolt" until the throwout bearing was "preloaded" slightly but cannot get the clutch to disengage as I dont have the travel now. I am using a RAM powergrip that I bought from Summit. I am not sure of the Pressure plate rating but it is extremely heavy as I had to get an adjustable pivot ball to put the clutch fork on ( the bellhousing would not fit with the stock pivot as it would hit the pressure plate by a 1/4 inch due to the extra "depth or height" of the heavier pressure plate. My question is this. Would the force exerted by the pressure plate be greater than what the CNC system can produce therefore not allowing me to work the clutch? Has anyone run into this? Also, my pivot ball is adjusted so that I get clearance but I don't believe it is limiting my throwout bearing travel thus causing the problem. Any ideas?
