Still having issues with our 95 Explorer with shifting. (mazda 5 speed)
As a bit of an "informational" thing....
How far off the floor is your clutch pedal before you feel it starting to drag against the clutch disk to move the truck/suv?
Sense ours has started to 'grind' again when attempting to put into reverse and 1st/2nd... Just wondering where the usual clutch-engagement area everyone is at.
Ours moves only off the floor about 1 1/2" before the clutch is fully engaged. There's no sign of any leakage or 'fade'. It just gets this way when 'hot' again.
So I'm wondering where everyone's at for clutch pedal off floor to engage clutch.
I'm already looking into dropping the transmission to figure out what the he** is going on. Either we have a massive air pocket that didn't come out with the bleeding. (quite possible...I might pull the master out and flip it upside down and see if we get any bubbles out the filler tank......)
For example: Press the clutch to the floor and put into 1st gear (or any gear). How far up off the floor would be considered the 'norm' for problem free service?
Thanks all!!
