Clutch adjustment (Opel Kadett D)

There is no play in the KADETT D clutch. As the clutch linings wear, the pedal rises, See Figure A8493.

Remove the locking plate (arrow) from the cable.



Use a tape measure to measure the distance from the center of the pedal to the top edge of the steering wheel.

Note: Do not press the pedal. Write down the dimension -A-.

Press the clutch pedal all the way down and measure the distance to the steering wheel again. Record the dimension -B-.

The difference between -A- and -B- should be 138 mm. If this value is not achieved, it should be set with nuts on the threaded end of the cable.

Secure the cable with a locking plate.

Note: After adjustment, the clutch pedal should be slightly higher than the brake pedal. Setting it at the same height is incorrect and should be changed, as it may lead to difficulties in shifting gears.
