so i did a burnout and now the clutch will not dis engage. This happened one time before but i drove it for a little and it went away. This time it wont

i have adjusted the master cylinder and its pushing the slave. All the pressure is still there but when i push the clutch nothing happens

it wont go in gear. or i can start the car in 1st gear and start driving but when i push the clutch in nothing happens it stays in gear

is this a bad pressure plate or something else. Is it possible the clutch can stick to the flywheel. i mean all the pressure is there
its and ACT 6 puck sprung clutch.

is there pressure in the pedal?

can you move the pivot fork?

mkslide · 12-11-2009, 06:44 PM

yeah theres pressure in the pedal the fork is moving too
i can see the slave pushing the fork
im just confused at why this happens particularly when i do a burnout.
this was the second time besides the other time when it happened again

las time it happened it was stuck for a couple minutes and then the problem went away

Maybe throwout bearing? Clutch Fluid?

I LUV MY S13 · 12-11-2009, 06:50 PM

yeah i think it may be your bearing

mkslide · 12-11-2009, 06:51 PM

why would it be the bearing im not to clear on how the bearing would be bad

mkslide · 12-11-2009, 06:56 PM

i drive the car as my daily and its my track car too but the only time i see that it does this is when i do a standstill burnout
would this cause the bearing to get messed up because im putting to much pressure on it?

S117A47 · 12-11-2009, 06:57 PM

You could have thrown it during the burnout. It might just not be releasing the clutch or something...

mkslide · 12-11-2009, 07:00 PM

Time for a NEW CLUTCH....... sounds like the pressure plates stuck to the flywheel.. when you buy the new clutch it should come with a new throw out bearing.. got to drop that transmission.........
