Stage 4 6 puck problem...

[InrkldNturboSpld]

Hey guys..I just recently installed my Clutchmaster Stage 4 clutch. After the install I noticed that the car would go into every gear fine with the car turned off. However, once the car was running it was pretty tough to get the car into 1st gear or reverse when sitting still...however, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th were fine to get into once the car was actually moving. So today, I replaced both the Master and Slave cylinders and adjusted the pedal all the way out and i still have the same exact problem..they did nothing for me. If anyone knows what my problem is I am open to suggestions. It just seems that no matter what I do the clutch is not disengauging as it should..and it feels almost as stock...doesn't really seem to grab hard all the time, but then again im in the process of breaking it in with maybe 100 miles tops on it. Also, I have no chatter at idle like most people end up with...all in all I dont think it's performing as it should and something is wrong..

I assume you have bled the system after the replacement of your master and slave. And if you have played around with adjusting the pushrod on the master, then the only suggestion that I can give is to send the clutch in to our shop for inspection. A lot of the times a clutch can get out of balance during shipping if it is dropped, or a disc can be warped, or a strap can be damaged. But the only way we can tell for sure what is going on with your kit is if you can send it in.
Before you send it in you should give our techs a call at (909) 877-6800, talk to Luis, tell him what is going on with your clutch and if he wants to see it you can get a return number from him so he knows which clutch is yours when it gets to the shop.
