I'm new to the world of hydraulic trannies and am wondering if there is anyway to adjust/tighten the clutch? I just want to delay replacing the clutch as long as possible. It looks like there is some sort of bleeder valve where the hydraulic line goes in but I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with it. I'm just looking to buy myself some time so any suggestions are appreciated.

TIA

What do you mean by adjust/tighten clutch? Not understanding what you want to do...

 

I would like to adjust/tighten the clutch. It is slipping and I would like to make it so it doesn't do that anymore.

Well if your clutch is slipping, you cannot adjust or tighten it to fix the problem. Odds are you need to get a new clutch.

 

The bleeder valve is for, well bleeding. You cannot tighten the clutch if it's slipping only thing is replace it. Not trying to be a dick but how can you tighten a clutch?

 

OK I'm glad it's just not me not understanding what he was talking about.

 

Yes I know the bleeder valve is for bleeding I was just curious as to whether or not it had anything to do with it (???maybe bleeding after tightening???). As for tightening the clutch, I also own a DA that has a cable transmission. When the clutch was slipping in that all I had to do is turn the adjustment **** and "whoala!" the clutch has been tightened. I'm not lookin to make it "like new again" I am just tryin to buy myself some time before I have to replace it.

How hard is it to understand????? I WANT TO TIGHTEN MY CLUTCH. If it's possible please help, but if it's not don't be an *** about it. I'm just tryin to learn.

Look under the dash by the pedals..Follow the clutch pedal up, you will find a screw

Great thread.
You should learn to search and not have others do it for you.

OK, Ryan my friend has a DA also, by turining the **** you are adjusting the engagement point. For everyone else reading this you cannot tighten a clutch end of story, bottomline, finito. If your clutch is slipping replace it.
