what happens if you over stroke a clutch? + hydraulic question...
i have just got my car back together and measured the stroke of the clutch at the release bearing
the bearing has a maximum push of about 20mm
i have a std cossie cover plate and an ap 6 paddle centre plate.
i read in the ap book that their cover needs 12.5mm to release.
if i am going 8mm too far will this do an damage?
would i be better off putting a stop under the pedal to limit the throw?
i also need a new clutch master as mine doesnt release properly.
after using the car for a while the slave builds up fluid meaning the clutch slips and i have to drain some fluid from the slave.
the slave is a new 22mm cylinder, the master is an old 0.7 (17.5mm) cylinder
would i be better off down sizing the master to say 0.625 (15.6mm) or sticking with the 0.7 and limiting the pedal travel?
im guessing stay with the 0.7 as its a closer match to the bore of the slave.
what do you think?
