T50 fork Spring

Postby repowered » Wed May 10, 2006 5:05 pm

got my t50 for ke30 in all good, jsut runing clutch line. noticed hole in clutch fork near the seat for the slave to sit into, is this for a spring ? my guess is yes.

ill have to make somthing up, doesnt look like theres any hook on Box to hook spring onto though. might have to make somthing up on the underbody.

Yeah - hole, no spring on the couple of T50's I've had in the past.

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

bleeding clutch

Postby repowered » Thu May 18, 2006 7:53 pm

just got the clutch line all installed and hooked up but...

i filled it up with fluid and bled it through the bleed nipple till all the air was gone then did it up while pedal was flat down. but the pedals soft as hell theres like no resistance pressing the pedal down and only about 10mm of movement in the slave , not sure if there should be more. I reckon its enough to disengage the clutch , but the pedal feels wrong.

ive modded the pedal box so the pedal picks up the clutch master fork, it only pushes clutch fork in about 70% of the full distance it can move in. not sure if that will affect it.

i found a random spring and hooked it up but was bit weak and didnt make a diffrence to the feel of the pedal.

i'll put the shifter on and see if it makes any differnce changing gears (engine not going yet.... rolla on axle stands)

hope all that isnt confusing i got some pics of my pedal box i might post up
