INSTALLATION METHODS AND PARTS USAGE
Distortion of clutch components during installation and the use of non-standard components are common causes of clutch malfunction.
Improper clutch cover bolt tightening can distort the cover. The usual result is clutch grab, chatter and rapid wear.
An improperly seated flywheel and/or clutch housing are additional causes of clutch failure. Improper seating will produce misalignment and additional clutch problems.
The use of non-standard or low quality parts will also lead to problems and wear. Only use recommended factory parts.
A cocked pilot bearing is another cause of clutch noise, drag, hard shifting, and rapid bearing wear. Always use an alignment tool to install a new bearing. This practice helps avoid cocking the bearing during installation.
