Sorry for all the posts here but my resto is getting close to the end and a lot of loose ends need to be wrapped up all at once.
Does anyone know if Borg and Beck 45692 / 14 is the correct clutch cover aka pressure plate for a BN2? I have a new AP clutch cover and the distance from the pressure plate to the release bearing surface is .190" less on the AP unit.
In the 30 years I've been involved with this car it has had a clutch issue which I am trying to resolve. All the "take up" was in the last 1/2 to 1 inch of pedal travel making it very hard to be smooth. It has never been grabby or chatter or slipping or anything. When I took it apart I expected a worn out disc, but everything is like brand new. The linkage fron the pedal lever to the front lever is definitely kluged and not original but appears strong.
I have everything new including the linkage pieces but I would prefer to (at least) put the old disc back in if the issue is the linkage or clutch cover because I don't want to have the flywheel faced if I can avoid it.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Walt
