gethyn rees Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 hi I'm new to this site so sorry if this is in the wrong place but i have a question about the clutch on my 90 i have fitted a disco 200tdi when i was doing this i also fitted a new clutch now i took it for the first driver yesterday and found that the clutch is bitting Right at the top of the peddle it doesn't seem to slip but was hard to get in to gear so we adjusted the peddle and this did help with the getting it into gear but not much on the bitting point now it has been a long while since the 90 has been on the road so i cant remember what the clutch was like before any advice would be greatly received as i don't want to pull the box or the motor out again many thanks and love the forum gethyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Henson Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Clutch and brake pedal should be the same height as each other. Ideally, the bite point should be about half way up. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
