Any info appreciated
I just finished a motor rebuild and my clutch won't disengage
I can shift into gear with the motor off, but when on, it wont go in gear.

R154 transmission
Act stage 2 clutch
New Slave and Clutch Master cylinder
New pilot bearing and throwout bearing and hub all the wave washers are in the correct position
The clutch disk is not backwards I quadruple checked it , and the pressure plate seems good, no bent fingers
The system has been bleed thoroughly
and I cannot adjust the clutch pedal unless I loosen the master, it seems in spec
The clutch hub and fork move when the clutch is pressed

thank you for your help

[/COLOR]vdrifter i made sure the c clip was out
placed the piston sideways and used a socket that size to tap it out
if you get to pieces of wood to elevate it off the ground it pops right out

i wouldn't mind a beamer lol

That happened to me when my clutch disk was backwards.... I know you said you checked it, which i did too.

I have done this before as well... When I was working as a mechanic I had the same issue, dropped the tranny 3 times, couldnt figure it out, my boss didnt even check anything, just flipped the clutch disk and buttoned it all back up... I felt retarded till he told me (an import mechanic of 40 years, 25 of which owning his own performance shop) he has done it multiple times too lol, so apparently it happens to the best of us. Of whom I am not a member lol

Thanks for the responses
I pulled the clutch off every 4 times I checked it.
It's not even possible to put the act stage 2 clutch in backwards since the springs raise too high to allow a backwards install lol

Your interior looks similar to mine. What did you use for fabric? The boot almost looks shiny?

Does anyone know where I can find a longer throttle linkage?

 

[z8dmc]

some fabric from a textile shop.
I believe its an internal issue with my tranny. Nothing was wrong clutch wise, lines, pedal or anything else.
Im planning on rebuilding the r154.
