'44 SC clutch adjuster button is stuck!!!

Craig Hilbrandt · Mar 18, 2009

[color=darkred:e276876647]I'm trying to adjust the clutch on my '44 SC and have found the adjuster button. I have tried to push it in with a screw driver and a customized bolt, but it won't budge. I have sprayed it with PBlaster the last 2 nights and it doesn't want to play nice. Any ideas out there?? (I'm currently shying away from heating it with the torch, being a we clutch and all!!)[/color:e276876647]

The button is spring loaded and is supposed to pop back out. Mine stuck after I pushed it in. I used P.B Blaster on mine, as well, and kept lightly tapping it until it caem all the way back out.

Craig,
Don't use heat, you will take the temper out of the spring that
keeps it out and locked. Is it maybe wedged against the
adjuster ring? Try moving the adjuster slightly. If it was a
running tractor that pin should be well lubed and not rusted
stuck.
