Hello guys.
I have an issue with a new flywheel clutch installation im doing on my lola.
Ive trying to figure out what is the issue but im out of solutions ....
I hope you can give some guidance on things to check.
So i have a new 3 plate 5.5 clutch metallic installed with new step flywheel (0.1 inch).
clutch floater/preassure plates drection/positioning has been verified and is correct.
the 3 pressure plates slides easily in spline,
However i see that clutch fingers are slightly pointing inward which should not be. still dont know why.
master and slave cylinders are the lola original, which was for carbon AP clutch.
Based on Tilton doc a master travel of 0.8 inch should be enough to disengage, max travel of AP master cilinder is 30mm
I revised for leaks in master, lines and bearing and i could not see any leak around.
system has been bleed, and bearing has been stroked forward so it contacts with clutch fingers.
So when i press pedal, i feel some mm travel to build up pressure (~4mm). and then maybe another ~20mm travel. I can see that first floating plate disengages from pressure plate, and has slight free movement. but second and third does not.
I dont know how far bearing is pushing the fingers, but i would say that first plates clearance is not more than ~0.4 mm
Good is that at least i have access to see the bottom of the clutch and i can measure things.
So in general it take quite long travel to start seeing the first plate disengaging, like there is a leak, or like the bearing is far from springs. but i check both and seems to be fine.
Any suggestion fellas ???
I will try to post video
