·I just installed an Arizona clutch and an RPS pressure plate. I replaced the flywheel and both bearings and everything else that could be replaced. Upon trying it out I couldn't get it in gear, but I was able to shut the car off, put it in gear, and start it up. It wouldn't creep and I could let the the clutch out and move as normal.
Now I turned the pedal adjustment as far it can go, to depress the clutch as far as possible. With the pedal to the floor, it bangs into gear like the clutch is half depressed, however once it is in gear the clutch doesn't ingauge or start to make the car move untill the pedal is half way out. When shifting it takes a second untill the rpm's drop to make the shift but it doesn't grab again untill the pedal is halfway out.
What I was wondering , is this in anyway normal for this clutch, or well it get better after it breaks in more? I have looked at some old posts on this clutch. Most of them talk about the clutch being installed backwards. The Arizona I got had "flywheel side" written on one one side, and that side is towards the flywheel. I honestly don't remember which side the snout was facing. It ingauges smoothly and there is no chattering or noises. But it is so hard to get into 1'st and I can't get it into reverse without shutting the car off, driving it is a real chore.
I would greatly appreciate any imput or advice anyone can give me.. Thanks
