Hi Craig, I will look at my old engine / gearbox and see if the lever can be re attached in situ. It will be this evening before I can do this. Please do not scrap your lovely 940.

well been of then back on bolted all up and noticed something the slave cylinder would be on full extended reach to even touch the clutch relise arm now all dimentions on the clutch was the same only thing couldnt mesure was the friction area so do you think it could be yet again a wrong clutch or the relise arm falling of again i noticed it only sits ther and no strain

Hi Craig
I know the car's causing you grief right now but I'm sure that if you scrap it and get something else you'll regret it - you've said so many times how good these cars are. When you hit a problem, try to think about the good things the car's done for you in the past and how it will be great for you again when it's fixed. Cheers and good luck with it. Pete

im after a clutch relise arm of a m90 gear box think thats what is wrong with mine do they have a piece of plastic on the back where the ball goes in the gear box tell you why i can see a piece broken on mine but allso for the clutch to work the slave cylinder is at full reach then it pops out before disingaging the clutch this is the only thing i can think has gone wrong
im starting to loose the will to go on with the car as im now expert at droping the box but 7 times is getting a joke now

Are you sure the ball isn't worn or the fork bent. I had a really frustrating time with my M46 box in my td. I used 2nd hand parts. the worn ball would punch through the fork (x2) but would show as a gap between pushrod and fork before failing. The fork should fit snug on the carrier (its possible to be lucky and feed it through the hole but you must remove the slave cylinder from it's mount to have room to manouvre). I also noted there are two thicknesses of thrust bearing so is it possible you have the wrong one?
If the broken bit you are looking at is the ball, then that's your problem, a little difference at the pivot ball can make a lot at the slave cylinder. Get new volvo bits, theyre worth it . looks like you need a new spring clip (like a bent kirby grip) for the fork as well or it'll keep falling off. Last edited by Ferg; Apr 9th, 2008 at 22:19. |
