No slack at the gearbox or pedal end when depressing the clutch Chris From: quantumowners@googlegroups.com [mailto:quantumowners@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Susan and Martin Scott Sent: 05 September 2018 22:09 To: quantumowners@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Help needed with a 2+2 clutch problem Hi Chris, If I recall correctly the Escort quadrant is the 55mm black one. With an observer, is it possible to see if the arm starts moving when the pedal is depressed, or if there is a delay indicating slack being taken up. Could also 'twang' the cable at the arm to guage if there is any slack.

Martin I refitted the pedal box and fully depressed the clutch. The is still quite a bit of travel on the release arm. So looks like there is an issue with the adjuster and or cable.

My fix was to modify the white quadrant to increase the radius to the cable and increase the amount the cable moved. Eventually I fitted a quadrant from a Mk3 Escort (81-86), Ford part number 78GB7L583AC. This was coloured black (I don't think that means much). This had a larger radius and solved the problem. The bite point is still on the low side but doesn't create an issue.
