Clutch problem

Post by Loopy »

Can anyone give me advice on this one please.

The problem is that the gears engage fine, when when the clutch pedal is released it has to travel to almost the maximum height before the van moves, and then only a limited amount of 'pull'.

I have replaced the clutch plate and release bearing, and bleed the brakes and clutch a few times. There does not appear to be any leaks anywhere along the system.

Has anybody had a similar problem? :?

as these clutches are "self adjusting"

all I can suggest is the clevis and pushrod on the master cylinder becoming undone.

maybe someone else can suggest a cure
