Can a Stiff Clutch Be Adjusted?

[DeTalia]

Clutch too stiff can be adjusted. If the issue is only with the free travel of the clutch pedal, you need to slightly lengthen the clutch cable (loosen the limit nut on the outer sheath of the clutch cable by one or two turns) or, for a hydraulic pump-type clutch, shorten the push rod of the slave cylinder. If the problem is due to wear or failure of related components, replacement is necessary, mainly involving the clutch friction disc, clutch pressure plate, or release bearing. When lifting the clutch pedal, follow the operational principle of 'fast first, slow second, and coordinated third'. When starting, press the clutch pedal swiftly and decisively, all the way down, to ensure complete disengagement of the clutch.
