mcnea001 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) 1995 Subaru Legacy L Wagon - MT / EJ22 / 186K So pulled the clutch today and found a suprise...attached. I now know what that noise was. I am thinking that the throwout bearing caused the damage. The throwout bearing looks good. But was missing a clutch sleeve clip / spring release clip / weight release lever as show in the diagram. It was super loose front to back / side to side when I pulled it. Plan to replace bearing / clips / springs / fork (has a stress crack). Just want to make sure I have covered all the bases. Thanks again!

Fairtax4me Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 That happened to my friends honda as well. Spring broke out of its holder and jammed against the flywheel. New clutch kit and you'll be good to go. Be sure to replace those paper clip looking clips that hold the release bearing to the clutch fork. The clutch forks also have problems with the pivot point wearing and eventually the fork cracks, then the clutch doesn't release. If there is excessive wear in the cup where it pivots replace the fork also. About $40 for the fork and all the clips from a dealer. Don't forget the big Y clip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
