You will wear your clutch prematurely. With no play, it means that there is lack of pressure on the clutch plate thus allowing it to slip; slippage causes wear.


Pedal travel on a clutch how to adjust?

Depends on what vehicle you are working on. Rule of thumb is 1" free play, but it may be different on your vehicle. Normally the clutch master cylinder has an actuator rod that connects to the clutch pedal. This rod has a lock nut on it. Loosen this nut and turn the rod to lengthen or shorten the pedal free play. Some clutches are self adjusting. The free play must be adjusted so the clutch will fully release but not so much as to cause it to slip.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on a 1995 suzuki sidekick jx 16valve?

Hold the end of the treaded rod (where it connects to the actual cable) with a pair of vicegrips - this to stop it from turning when tightening the nut. Yes the nut gets tightened to the point that the lever going into the clutch can be moved easily for about 3-4 mm (1/8-5/32") of travel. This 'free play is important - without the freeplay the clutch will wear out in no time at all. Too much free play will cause the clutch not to engage fully and cause the gears to grind etc.

Your 600 series ford tractor clutch does not engage?

check the back axle oil level first as if it is low the dual power can slip then check the free play on the clutch pedal you should have between 1cm an 2cm of free play in the pedal before you feel pressure on the pedal if there is no free play then adjust the linkage under the cab until you have the desired amount if this is not the problem your clutch is probably gone you will have to split the tractor and examine the clutch and pressure plate and repair as necessary if the clutch is good then you could have a dual power problem so the dual-power unit will have to be checked and repaired
