Hi folks

I need to get a clutch today before my local place closes at 6pm, so can someone please advise on the following as soon as poss please if anyone knows ?

I have a Series 1, and my local place has a clutch specified for 1986-1992 Escort RS Turbo, my car is a 1985, but are the Series 1 and 2 clutches the same ? If so i will just get this one

Cheers

Michael

no there not - well saying that i dunno about the clutch itself,pmsl, but the covers are definitly different

MichaelG

Fook lol

Anyone else know for sure ???

Woodford Garage just list their clutches as "S1 +S2 Standard Motorcraft Clutch Ł79.95"

If its just the clutch you need opposed to a kit then either will be fine as there both 220mm

MichaelG

Whats the difference mate ?

I was under the impression you change the cover, plate and release bearing ?

haz87

The plates got a different pattern on it (for the locating lugs/dowels/whatever there called) so it just wont physically go on. I had this problem recently after buying an s2 kit and realising i needed an s1 kit in the end

MichaelG

Double fook lol

Ok will just have to try and find an S1 one locally. Thanks mate.

the clutchs are different as the s1 uses a smaller flywheel

a s2 is 220mm i think and a s1 is 200mm

If they have one, i BELIEVE that a 1.8d uses the same fitment clutch kit. So take your clutch cover with you and just double check
