1969deluxebus:
has anyone ever seen a  pressure plate colapes three times. they were all sachs and they all did it with in a two year period. would it be me driving? I just don't know why it would always do this. i just thouht i woudl throw it out there to the form house. It is in a bus with a stock 1600 single port

Maybe someone changed the bell housing at some time and it has a 71 style throw out shaft, (if the wrong year thow out bearing is used)this will cause the bearing to push to one side and colapse the P plate.
I know you put all the early parts in last time, disc,PP and T/O bearing....maybe post a pic of the trans when the motor is out.

dannyboy:
maybe your over centering the pp??

what does over centering mean u can do that ?

dannyboy:
if its an early style, if you push the pp too far it starts to push unevenly. if heard of this happening, and it could decrease the life of the pp
lol just a guess, dont take my advice to seriously, ive been known to be wrong    :D
