The reason for the Tangjun four-wheel clutch not disengaging may be excessive wear. Symptoms of clutch not disengaging: When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the power cannot be cut off, resulting in gear collision or inability to shift; after shifting, the tractor can still move slowly without engaging the clutch. Reasons for clutch not disengaging: Excessive free travel of the pedal; excessive free clearance; the three release levers are not on the same plane; the support nut end is loose, and the release lever is in a free state, all of which can reduce the backward movement distance of the pressure plate, causing incomplete separation of the driving and driven components. The separation claw and clutch bearing cover are severely worn; the clutch bearing is severely worn; the clutch has axial play; when the pedal is fully depressed, the release lever moves the pressure plate backward a small distance, causing incomplete clutch separation. The driven plate steel sheet is warped; the friction plate is bonded to the driving component; the driven plate hub is stuck or seized with the spline of the clutch shaft; the groove on the inner wall of the pulley and the contact area of the driving plate and pressure plate lugs are worn into pits, making axial movement of the driving plate difficult; after depressing the pedal, the driving and driven components remain in direct contact, causing incomplete clutch separation. The newly replaced friction plate is too thick, and even when the pedal is fully depressed, the driving and driven components of the clutch cannot be separated clearly.

I've been driving a Tangjun vehicle for several years and have encountered issues with the clutch not disengaging properly. There are usually several reasons for this: the clutch disc wears thin and can't disengage normally; problems with the hydraulic system, such as leaking hydraulic fluid or a failing pump; a damaged release bearing that gets stuck; incorrect pedal adjustment, either too loose or too tight; or an uneven flywheel causing friction. With long-term driving, frequent use of the clutch can cause these components to wear out. I've found that regularly checking the clutch fluid is crucial—if it's low, it needs to be topped up. When there's a disengagement issue, shifting gears becomes difficult, and you might even hear grinding noises, affecting driving smoothness. If not repaired in time, the clutch could completely fail, requiring a tow to the repair shop. I recommend having a mechanic inspect the clutch system at least every two years to avoid unexpected breakdowns on the road—safety first!

The clutch disengagement of the Tangjun vehicle is not smooth. I figure common issues include worn-out clutch plates needing replacement; hydraulic line leakage, with oil drained and no pressure; seized release bearing causing poor operation; misadjusted pedal linkage; or warped flywheel deformation. These problems tend to emerge after prolonged driving without maintenance. I once replaced the clutch plates, which was quite time-consuming. From personal experience, checking the clutch pedal feel is crucial—if it's too soft or too hard, pay attention. Breaking down on the road can waste time, so it's best to troubleshoot in advance. Regularly topping up hydraulic fluid can prevent leaks—a simple DIY task. Long-term neglect may lead to repair costs exceeding thousands, making early intervention a cost and hassle saver.

Clutch disengagement failure is quite common in Tangjun vehicles, with root causes including worn clutch discs, low hydraulic fluid, damaged bearings, improperly adjusted pedals, or deformed flywheels. I've experienced it myself—getting stuck and unable to shift gears when starting. If not repaired promptly, it can lead to slippage and damage more components. From a safety perspective, it poses significant risks on highways, necessitating pulling over. The inspection is straightforward: first check the hydraulic fluid level and top it up if low; then test and adjust the pedal tension. Prevention is key—have a professional inspect it every 20,000 kilometers or so. Proper maintenance can avoid costly repairs.
