i have a bseries tilton oc-11 twin disk w/ 9lb flywheel and hydraulic throwout bearing in my car. whenever i pull off in first gear it makes a squeaking noise from the clutch. i adjusted the pedal and it seems to work perfect. but it only squeaks during the time i come off the clutch to pull off in first and sometimes between shifts it'll squeak.
also i noticed when i'm in second gear and i'm coming to a stop, sometimes i'll just leave it in 2nd but i'll be on the clutch so its as if its in neutral, but i can feel the car jerking occasionally as if its still in gear even though i'm on the clutch.
another thing i noticed is now it makes a squealing noise occasionally when i come off the clutch in first gear.
any help with this would be greatly appreciated. what could these possibly be?

 

Did you trim down the bolts on the Pressure Plate, you have to do that on tiltons because they rub on the tranny case.

nope i didn't do that. i guess i'll pull the tranny to check the bolts, any other info on the squeaking/squealing noises?

 

mine squeeks just like you described, ive allways known that to be normal, just like the clanging of the discs when the clutch is engaged.

 

When ever something squeeks I oil it.

thanks for the info. i'm just going to raise the pedal and i guess get used to it. . .

 

I've seen this same noise on a high horsepower RX-7 w/ a twin disk clutch, squeals and does all the same stuff you said, and when I asked, the builder/owner said it was completely normal. Don't know exactly if it's same circumstances but sounds like it might be ok.
