Bending a rodney
Well j par got me thinking about the clutch. In my original post I did mention that I was trying to "clear it up" ......stomped it and smacked 2nd.....that's when it started.
After a rough day fighting the 99 scattersheild bolts, the headers and other stuff , I found a damaged pressure plate. As you can see below, one of the struts took a major hit and bent badly.
After doing some measuring with calipers, it looks like although the p plate shell was still bolted on center, the heavy friction disc was pulled about 284 thou off center . Over a quarter inch off balance.
I'm not 100 percent certain but pretty sure I solved it.
McLeod SUPPOSEDLY put this set up together for my combo. Less than 20 miles on it.
So thanks to all who helped out and kudos to ole j par for getting my brain in the right direction!
