Zetec Type 9 Clutch Parts

[speedtripledan]

before i put the engine back in i just want to check my clutch is the right one

 

Friction plate is a c142-3

pressure plate is qy 13060

release bearing is type 9 standard i think

going off spec i got with the car the flywheel is a lightened raceline item

 

any ideas ?

 

reason for asking is there is a bit of a rattle on tickover which is defiantly coming from the clutch

[Guest Lowlife]

Does the rattle disappear when the clutch is depressed ??? Probably the release bearing off center and worn

The release bearing is held 'firmly' in contact with the diaphragm fingers by the pawl spring in the original sierra pedal assembly when the pedal is not being pressed. Many aftermarket arrangements, ie kitcar manufacturer pedal box, don't have this feature. Hence the release bearing can rattle. Fit a spring in the system to tension the cable or just up the idle (1000-1200rpm) which often helps.

This. I have a spring mod to do tomorrow for exactly this reason!

Dan, just put a standard sierra clutch in mine, also mated to a zetec
