My 91 N/A is experiencing clutch problems...... about 7 months ago i installed a stock disk w/ a race pressure plate (on recommendations from Mazdatrix). Now my car starts, but when the clutch is depressed and i try to put it in gear, it will grind. If i put it in gear, then depress the clutch and try to start it, it will begin to roll as if the clutch was out. Mazdatrix advised that it may be hydraulics. Clutch M/C was changed and the problem continues. Is my clutch worn out? Pilot bearing? Any recomendations would be very helpfull

 

Check to see if you have air in you line. If not, I'd bet your slave is going out.

 

ill try that

 

yep, rebuild or replace the slave cylinder...bleed the system good...visually watch the slave push the fork arm when actuated...if it still does the same thing after this, then you can start worrying about the internal stuff

 

i can see the slave cylinder pushing the fork back.... but i will try... at least i will have new hydraulics... ill keep you posted. I replaced the hose w/ a SS hose about 18months ago wheh all new hydros were installed.

 

Slave cylinder is done.... problem continues. there is definitely no air in the line. Tommorow i will have a new clutch installed as well as the T/O bearing, Pilot bearing etc. Well see what happens hopefully everything gets fixed.

 

Found and fixed the problem... pilot bearing
