What Causes the Clutch Pedal to Feel Heavy When Depressed?
1 Answers
The reasons why the clutch pedal feels heavy when depressed are: 1. Excessive tension in the return spring; 2. Damaged clutch booster cylinder; 3. Low compressed air pressure; 4. Dirty or corroded linkage mechanisms in the clutch system; 5. Overly tight release bearing. The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws. The output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission. Solutions for a heavy clutch include: 1. Removing the clutch mechanism for cleaning, lubrication, and adjusting the gap to standard specifications; 2. Disassembling the clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, and pipelines, cleaning them with alcohol, and then blowing them clean with high-pressure air.
