Default HELP! Car moving when on the 2 step!

All Motor B20V CRX has been moving into
the beams as soon as I get on the 2 step. E brake pulled and still doing it. Any ideas what’s causing this? Tired of fouling out. Lol!

Either your clutch is mis-adjusted and starting to engage at higher RPM or your e-brake isn't functioning properly. Check both of these... and stop posting the same thing all over the forum please... it's just rude man.

Your clutch is either not disengaged all the way, or you do not have a clutch stop setup properly and it is re-engaging. The second problem is a bigger problem than it pulling through the beams....on a B series you are thrusting the crank into the oil pump gear and stopping it.

Put the car on the ground or on jack stands. Put it in 1st gear. Have a buddy on the tire to turn it. Start pushing the clutch in to where it releases. Once it releases, note where the clutch pedal position is in relation to the floor. It may be easier with another buddy under your feet so you get an accurate location. You want to set your clutch stop on the pedal 3/4" - 1" past the point that it initially disengaged to have some room for those clutch plates to expand with heat after the burnout. This way you don't pull through the beams. If you want to adjust the disengagement point higher or lower, adjust the rod on the master. Hope that helps.

Thank you for that info. The car is a 89 CRX with a hydro to cable kit. We currently don’t have a clutch pedal stop on the car, so I’m not sure if this makes a difference. The clutch cable is pretty new still and adjusted nice and snug. It’s a Clutch Masters stage 4 and not a twin disc.
