Trans & Clutch 8 - Adjust the Clutch

This video assumes you have already bled the clutch. If you haven't, stop. You have to have every bit of air out of the clutch hydraulics before beginning these procedures. Clutch adjustment is key on 4g63 cars. Preloading the clutch can lead to catastrophic engine main thrust bearing failure. The clutch hydraulics need to have enough fluid volume flowing through them to fully-actuate the slave, but enough pedal travel to allow it to flow back to the reservoir when disengaged. This video covers the basics of how to do this. Also included are part numbers for 1g and 2g clutch pedal and linkage assemblies and a brief documentary of one of my previous failures. For the most comprehensive information about how all of the clutch hydraulic components work together, what happens when you get it wrong, what the accepted procedure is to adjust your clutch if you need to visualize it in a list... turn to the community!
