How do I adjust my clutch?

Well at first I was told it was my throw out bearing which sounds right. THen I was told I can adjust my clutch and get more life out of it. Their is supposed to be a bolt and I'm supposed to tighten it. THis all started because my clutch is making this grinding sound activated or not just all around. So let me know what u think :banghead:

is it a hydralic clutch?

Well i think so it is the stock tranny in a 1971 camaro

Ok, get under the car and find the linkage to the clutch fork. Follow that untill you find the adjuster, you can't miss it. Just make sure you go a little at a time because by the time it gets back to the pedal, a little goes a long way.

So do u think that adjusting it will stop the grinding in my clutch?

is it grinding when you go to put in it gear?

yep the only time it quets down is when im cruzin,but when i come to a stop it gets loud and I can't do anything to stop it. clutch ingaged or not in gear or not I confused

Another Q AF mewbie crap how long or how many reply's do u have to get thoughs stars up?

so the sound goes away when you press in the clutch and when your crusing, if so thats definatly your throw out bearing, i would reconmend a replacement asap, and the stars i think when it gets to 50 you become a af regular and 100 its like enthusiast

No dude NO MATTER WHAT is makes nosie but when im cruzin in gear it is quiter

Well I need to take it to Cali from oregon this coming up friday to get my tux fitted to be the best man in my bros wedding and his women is triping that i might not be able to come down to get it fitted so i need to know if ajusting it is going to fix the problem or do i need to get a clutch kit not to put any pressure or any thing. If im correct if it is the throw out bearing i need a hole clutch kit right?

Sounds like you just need to replace your clutch man. If it's making noise all the time then I'd go ahead and replace the whole damn thing.

Thanks man i tock ur advise and Ordered the clutch kit at napa. THe cool thing is I have not many tools and a machanic is leting me use his shop and he is going to walk me throw it because this is my first. Here it goes im a begineer machanic i start Wyo Tech in Oct.
