Re: Clutch bearing pressure plate 3 spd.

A pressure plate? do you mean the interface between the cuppy shaped thing on the thrust bearing and the toggles?

If so yes, you need play, because as the clutch wears that play will reduce.

Mogen:

It should have a slight interference fit into the bearing.

Thank you very much.Interference fit was what I presume to be good.Now it has 1,2mm play.So I will lathe a new one. When I saw this "Gearbox dating " I looked at my gearbox no.8735L it might be some years earlyer than engine 128160.
