What Are the Hazards of a Too-Tight Clutch?
1 Answers
A clutch adjusted too tightly will result in the car lacking power and the clutch slipping. Here are the related explanations: 1. Adjusted too loose: The clutch fails to function when needed, producing a knocking sound. Prolonged reverse impact on the rear wheel can lead to damage, and it is also harmful to the chain and the engine. 2. Release bearing: Regardless of the cause, the transmission must be removed for inspection. After removal, first check the clutch release bearing. If it lacks lubrication, feels stiff when turning, or makes slight abnormal noises, it indicates the bearing is damaged and needs replacement. If the bearing is fine, then check whether the clutch disc springs have loosened. If worn or loose, replacing the friction material can resolve the issue.
