Linden 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Hey guys last night i had an annoying mishap at the most annoying time, the clutch slave cylinder burst a seal, pissed out all my fluid and jammed the pushrod all the way out holding the clutch off.. I replaced the clutch slave cyl. about 2 months ago after I put a new 4puk clutch in and the last one shat out, it only takes about 3 cm of pushing the clutch pedal to disengage so when i was quickly changing gears i would have pushed the pedal hard to the floor. Do i need to get a different slave cylinder or put in a clutch stop to stop this from happening again? has a E36 ZF 5sp box in it, unsure of what the master cyl is... Cheers Linden Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Was the clutch rather heavy also? with only needing such little travel.... IIRC the E34 Clutch MC's are bigger (not sure what model/size) and 'bolt-in' to the E30 if you need more travel/modulation/stroke. Clutch Stop is also a very easy DIY if you are happy with the current MC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Linden 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2010 Clutch has always been fairly heavy never bothered me tbh (Pressure plate is 3350ft/lb i think) i just dont want it happening again as i have to pull the box off to get that stupid rod and sealout.. is the E34 physically much bigger as its quite a tight squeeze in there lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
