I have 3 cars with centerforce clutches all have a problem going into gear and I have experienced2 of the cars moving slightly when the clutch is depressed to the floor and the car is in a forward gear.
Tonight we removed the transmission and clutch from my friends car which is one of the three problem cars. We checked to see if the clutch disc slides smoothly on the splines and if there are any burrs preventing the disc from sliding and everything looks good. The shaft actually had some grease from the throw bearing too. The clutch fingers do not show any wear.and all three cars have new slaves, pilot bearings, clutches and throw bearings.
Any ideas? So far I have had 5 cars with this problem, one being my Blue car before the 6 speed swap. I have had it with rebuilt transmissions and old transmissions and all have the same issues. I have installed 3 of the clutches but 2 were by mechanics with the same results.
Typically when the car is first started it shifts fine but the more you drive the harder it becomes to go into gear. With the clutch staying engaged enough to move the car every once in a while it seem the clutch is not disengaging properly but I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
Can you over torque the pressure plate on a centerforce clutch?
Any suggestions would be helpful
