Subject:Clutch adjustment on Vanagon
From:Chris Bracken

Hi:
I have an 87 Wolfsburg, 175K miles.  In the last 2 days, I have found it
very hard to get into gear at a standstill, lots of grinding, etc.  It
feels like I just need to adjust the free play, but the only adjustment
that I could find in the Bentley book is at the clutch master cylinder
clevis-to-pushrod, and I can't even feel that part, never mind see it.  I
really don't want to take my instrument panel out to get to it!  It also
occurs to me that the reason there is no adjustment is that none is
possible, and I just have a clutch that is coming apart.  ( I guess I
should quit drag racing the old loaf, hunh?) Anyway, I wondered whether
there is any net.wisdom on this topic...

Thanks,
Chris
87 Wolfsburg
