If, when pressed, the clutch pedal reaches the stop without resistance

The clutch does not disengage

Clutch disengagement is possible only by pressing the pedal quickly

Consequently, there has been wear or damage to the master cylinder piston cup

Usually repairing the master cylinder with the replacement of cuffs does not bring the desired result, so it is better to replace the master cylinder.

We adjust the pedal travel by changing the length of the master cylinder pusher.

We loosen the locknut "B" of the tip "A" of the pusher and, rotating the pusher with your hand or pliers in the right direction, we achieve the desired result, after which we tighten the locknut.

The full travel of the clutch pedal should be 145-160 mm.

This stroke corresponds to an installation dimension of 120.3-121.7 mm between the bulkhead and the center of the master cylinder tappet lug.

In the absence of air in the hydraulic system, the installation dimension must provide a full travel of the outer end of the clutch release fork, equal to 21.5-23.5 mm.

Pedal free play is not adjustable.
