clutch

[Bob Taylor]

I just purchased a 52 Ford 8n, and the clutch pedal has to be almost all the way out before it engages. When it does engage it takes off like a rocket. When should it engage? How do you make it engage more gentle. I did let the clutch out really really slow.

Thanks Ron, any idea of what that would cost to have a shop replace the cluth and is there anything else we should look at while we do that?

When doing a clutch job, always replace the front tranny seal.

The best $4 you will ever spend.
