Clutch adjustment

[SamE30e]

Hey guys,

Weird question, is there an adjustment for the clutch? I know on some cars by the clutch pedal you can adjust a the cylinder a bit, is this the case on the e30's?

Reason I ask if, I have my m50 swap, G240 tranny and single mass flywheel with euro TOB but it's just not enough to fully disengage the clutch, if the clutch is pressed in I can turn the output shaft by hand, but there is some resistance.

Thanks

Sam

Anybody?

Sounds like you need to bleed the master and slave cylinder out as there might be an air bubble preventing you from being able to push the shift fork in enough. As for not being able to adjust the clutch I am almost positive that you cant as it is a hydraulic system and needs the right amount of fluid and pressure to do its thing. I could be wrong tho

The attachment at the top of the input/master cylinder is an eccentric bolt. It has a minor effect on the output/slave cylinder throw.

The clutch system is self-bleeding, so an air bubble is very unlikely to be the cause.

the slave cylinder is not self bled and it is very prone to air build up

Yes.

Bleed the clutch like you would a brake caliper.
Push the clutch down, crack the nipple, tighten the nipple let the clutch up - repeat etc...

You either installed the clutch incorrectly or there is air in the hydraulic system causing the "resistance."
