Okay guys so I?m at a loss here, I posted a few times
regarding the clutch on my M it?s got new everything. The
problem I was having was it just grabbing and shaking the
tractor when letting clutch out slow and it?s not just me a few
other experienced drivers said it was the same for them. But I
can?t figure this one out I checked my pressure plate finger
height it all seems to be so close I cannot see any difference
between the three. If I give the tractor more throttle the clutch
lets out smoother the more throttle the smoother it is. The
brakes are not grabbing I unhooked the brakes today and
drove it without any tension on the brake drums so I know
nothing is binding up there. One thing I haven?t checked is the
pressure plate finger height from the flywheel but I?m not sure
what that even is suppose to be. Now this clutch isn?t
unbearable but before I had the flywheel resurfaced and
rebuilt the motor the old clutch parts was smooth as silk. So
that brings me to the question of if it just needs time to break
in and if so how much time? You can see from the pictures
how everything looked when I took it apart to inspect before I
put it back together.
