I recently fitted a T5 manual to my Rover V8 (previously LT77) and a heavy duty clutch (paddle type).
No problem engaging gears, pedal doesnt feel any harder than before, but pulling away from stationary is a nightmare. At first I thought this was simply due to h/d clutch being either "off or on". Letting the clutch up smoothly is virtually impossible.
But a couple of times the clutch pedal has come back up, but the clutch is still engaged, no drive. I have managed to press pedal up and down a couple of times to get the car to move.
So, I'm wondering... could this be due to me using the wrong length pushrod from slave cyl to fork?
I used the same bits I had on the LT77. Could the fork be getting pushed too far and then being reluctant to return?
Vehicle has gone into storage for a while but I want to get it clear in my head how to tackle this problem later on.
Many thanks for all help.
Ian
