Engagement point always seemed high to me on these cars ...

Clutch smell means slipping, its wise to bed the clutch-flywheel surface in stop go traffic before pushing it hard ...

Good luck..

sachs 2.5 should definitely be broken in a little. it can slip before its broken in. several of my friends have come across this issue.


buy an RSS clutch pedal stop, that will help with pedal feel and eliminate dead travel.

Thanks for that! The long pedal travel is a bit annoying. I'll give that a try
