Hey guys, I have been having trouble with my clutch for a long time...not really sure what the problem is...but here are the symptoms: When I start the car-it actually moves forward a little bit, as though it were engaged to some degree. It also idles kind of rough, but if I push the clutch pedal down, it smoothes out. While driving the clutch seems to buck a bit while changing gears, my mechanic thought it might be the clutch cable length or something, he tried putting some washers on the end I think, this helped a little bit but still doesn't feel right. I compare it to my '65 bus, which is much smoother. I never quite understand the mechanics of the clutch operation, even thought I have taken more than few engines out and replaced clutches...etc. Any ideas appreciated... thanks -kevin guarnotta '65 kombi '71 sqbk somerville, ma ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
