??????New Clutch SLIPPING!!!!!!

MKIIISupraTurbo · 11-23-2005, 04:01 PM

I was taking my 87 Supra Turbo to storage, and before I got there, the clutch started slipping, the pedal got stiffer, and it doesen't engage until it's let out pretty far!......but the funny thing is, there's a new clutch just put in with the new motor. both have less than 900kms on them! Is this a problem with the clutch system, or do I seriously need to replace my clutch again???.......Nobody around where I'm from knows anything about these cars, nor will any garage take it in to look at it!!!........any help would be great!!......

Thanks, Matt

did you have the flywheel turned? if not it can cause very uneven wear, but never heard of it that early.

My guess is: The slave cyl. is out of adjustment, and is not letting the pressure plate engage fully. Adjust the clutch per this

and read entire section to see if it helps give you some answers.
