horrible clutch sounds i have a 1995 formula wiht a t56. when i push the clutch to the floor i get a horrible grinding sound, it sounds like a jackhammer. what could this be? i just put in a new clutch about 2 months ago.
I had a growling sound anytime the clutch pedal was pressed. The pilot bushing was wore out and the tranny input shaft would flop around a bit. TOB was fine.
I say the pilot bushing followed by the TOB.

yes, and dont forget to get clutch fork off of throwout bearing and drain as much of the tranny fluid as possible. might sound dumb that i am saying it but its happened to me and some friends on a couple occasions.

ok, so i took the slave cylinder out of the bellhousing and the clutch fork has lots of play, like it can move back and forth side to side very easily, do you think this could be the pivot bolt has come loose?
