NickTej22 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Hello! So my clutch isn't that old, it's a year old. I have no pedal return spring, and a new mechanical clutch line. Sometimes the pedal makes a creaking Adobe and sometimes feels a little crunchy. Not like overly crunchy like kettle chips, but more like a chunky peanut butter kind of crunchy.

So kinda like this.... And more specifically not overly like this.... But more like this.....

DeltaNu1142 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 There's a thread here somewhere that addresses brake pedal feel that resembles room-temperature raspberry preserves, but this one is new to me. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are mistaken. It was blueberries. Something to do with the ATE Super Blue brake fluid being blue.

DeltaNu1142 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 It's possible. But I distinctly remember the seeds being a problem. And how often do you hear people complain about blueberry seeds? Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Good memory. Do blueberries even have seeds? GTEASER's 2012 Legacy GT - Sold GTEASER's 2009 XTeaser - Sold GTEASER's 1992 Legacy SS - Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaNu1142 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Of course they do. Where would blueberries come from if there were no blueberry seeds? I'm from Maine. There's very little I can't tell you about blueberries. I also have Google. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaNu1142 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 But back to the question at hand... for kettle chips, I go with Cape Cod sweet mesquite. And for peanut butter, I'm not really faithful to either Jif or Skippy or Peter Pan, as long as it's crunchy. I don't know why you'd put peanut butter in your brake system, though. That makes zero sense. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJuan Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 The subject is clutch, not brakes. And I prefer to run strawberry glaze in my system, the glaze part makes it nice and smoothed. My wife's balls are delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I don't put it in the system, I use it externally. Jif Creamy as a fantastic substitue for anti-seize on the caliper/pad sliders FTW!!! Same for clutch fork. Plus you can use the clutch fork as a utensil to consume the peanut butter if you're hungry while working on the car.

WaspGT Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 So what what you're saying, Nick... Is that the pedal texture you're feeling isn't exactly like this... ? http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/14/zaharave.jpg I mean... We just need to get this straight before we can jump to any sort of conclusion here. We wouldn't want to steer you in the wrong direction.

GTEASER Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 OP, I was sitting on the can thinking about this, and you know, it's not the clutch. It's your left knee that's crunchy. Do you have any old sports injuries? In a line of work that requires you to be on your knees?

All jokes aside, the pedal really does feel crunchy at times, and it is a mechanical clutch. No fluid. Already replaced the line with a new one.

Nickup1 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hows your halogen fluid looking? That might have an effect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJuan Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Bottom line.......There's a spring behind the clutch peddle that's needs lubricant from time to time. Just spray some white lubricant around the spring area and that should cause the sound to go away. My wife's balls are delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTEASER Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Have you lubricated all the pivot points on the pedal assembly as well as the clutch fork. And shoot a little WD40 inside the cable sheathing? Start there if you haven't already. We can't do those things for you, you have to.
