Do any of yall know how to adjust the clutch for a 2001 v6 camaro
mine is unengaging to low and sometimes dosent!
help!

 

if it is changing the engagement point on you (sometimes up high, sometimes down low) that means you blew your tranny hydraulics. I just had the same thing happen to me. its like $150 for a new master and slave cylinder. I got mine from ls1speed.com, but you can go pretty much anywhere. just get the upgraded 01+ hydraulics set.

 

well thanks alot I will look into buying it!
but if i do get the new hydraulics set,
how do i change my clutches engagement point so it dosen't happen again?

 

alright well i looked online and i see my clutch is self adjusting hydraulics so from what you say i need a new master and slave cylinder?
correct?
but my tranny is fine right?

 

ur tranny is mechanically fine.the hydraulics control clutch engagement and they are shot. depending on how they failed your clutch may also be just fine.

Start with a master and slave cylinder. and wait till you drop the tranny to decide if the clutch needs fixed. if you do fix the clutch I would get a new flywheel as well. a new TO bearing may not be a bad idea either.... even though i didnt do it.... lets hope that doesnt come back to bite me

thanks spectergt260
and is this a hard job?
can I do it myself?
and where is the master and slave cylinder located on the clutch

 

I would say by the questions you're asking you'd be better off leaving a clutch and flywheel replacement to the professionals. It's not a hard job if you know what you're doing and know your way around the car, but it's a pretty in depth job for someone with only basic mechanical experience.

 

alright so what your saying is i should probabley leave it up to the pro's

 

also requires some non-conventional tools. do you have the means by which to drop the transmission without it actually dropping?

most people dont. I would (and did) let someone else do it

 

Quick question, did you check your clutch fluid? Pulling the tranny isn't too bad, I pulled mine out myself. But I had the entire exhaust system out, so that made things easier for me. Just depends on what mechanic's skills you have.
