Hi all,
One more about clutch cylinder diameters!!
Sinc I restored my Amazon, I've always had scratching gear changes between 3rd and 4th. 1st and 2nd are perfect!
Several options here: 1. shot synchros - I don't want to believe that at this point...
2. - badly adjusted mechanism - I don't thinks that's the problem: I tried all the possibilities. At one point, I even had it adjusted so that the pedal would not go down to the firewall but the clutch master-cylinder wouldn't go any further, i.e. all the fluid that was able to be pumped into the circuit was indeed pumped, and still the gears wouldn't change quietly.
3. - my guess is that I have a setup with a slave cylinder that is too large (later models?) and so there is not enough fluid to pump it to its maximal lenght. It might be coupled with a release bearing that might not be the proper model. As I've put the thing together with parts of early B18's, late B18's, 122S B20's and 140 B20's, I might have a bad combination.
What do you think of that? Are there differences between clutch mechanisms, clutch release bearings accirding to the production years?
Thanks for you input! Bye, Séb
