YOUR RIGHT YOUR RIGHT!! Maybe I just needed an adjustment... I have my pedal adjusted so it engages just above the floor, and it was doing that so it seemed fine but that leaves it harder to see if there is normal freeplay in the cable. Oh well, it was coming apart anyway and the disk was only $35 so Ill save the old one. Keith > Adjustment you say?

Wear makes the free play go away. You need to make sure the free play always stays above zero. A hard flywheel O-ring does sound like a problem, however. I usually don't see them get hard unless they have gotten really hot, but that could happen just because the clutch was slipping. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
