What are the reasons for the Steyr clutch being hard to depress?
1 Answers
Steyr clutch being hard to depress is caused by issues with the booster, poor quality pressure plate, or incorrect pressure plate installation. Booster issue: Check if the rear booster cylinder is damaged. Of course, if it's due to lack of oil or air intake, the manifested symptom would be the clutch being very easy to depress but unable to disengage. Therefore, if it's hard to depress, it cannot be caused by air intake. Pressure plate issue: Poor quality pressure plate or excessively stiff pressure plate springs can make it hard to depress. If replaced with springs that are too soft, the clutch may slip. Pressure plate installation issue: Incorrect pressure plate installation, such as installing a 280 horsepower plate on a 330 horsepower model, can also cause the clutch to be hard to depress.
