Split my VAC to replace the ring gear and found I had some clutch issues. I am having the Flywheel and Pressure plate resurfaced at a machine shop and have a new clutch disk from John Saeli.
The Case Service Manual show using a special tool (t-131)to measure and adjust the pressure plate with the flywheel. I don't have a T-131. There must be some other way of making the adjustment so I looked at my Case I&T manual. In that section it refers you to another I&T manual for Auburn Clutches...don't have that either.
Any ideas on how to make any needed adjustments???
She works all summer pulling a 6ft finish mower and I never noticed any clutch problem...tough girl!
(By the way the I&T manual says you can rotate the bearing housing on the clutch shaft to access the ball pivot shaft to remove the release bearing....You can't!! The fork will not clear the bell housing bump out unless you pull the shaft and bearing housing forward...which then starts draining the torque tube...Thank you I&T!!!)
