Re-attaching bell housing

[volkenstein]

Steve,
        About 40-50 mm IIRC. Check this : http://www.vwar.org/forum/index.php?topic=19.45 . It shows pretty much where your clutch arm sits when all is normal.

Ive finally got everything lined up and the bell housing back on, I have made sure that the 2 lugs on the TO bearing
engage with the clutch control arm shaft.

Problem I marked up the clutch control arm by scribing a line across the top before I removed it to
reattach the bellhousing, Ive refitted it and lined up the marks, problem is the arm looks way out of alignment,
its orientated too far clockwise. Have I done something wrong? The only thing that changed on the tranny is the bell housing
and clutch are not original to the tranny, help and advice anyone (short video below)

Steve,
        If as you say, everything is now as it should be you need to re-set the arm to servo relationship.
Same link I posted as before, noting the first of my pictures.

Bolt together the servo and fit it all on the trans. Set the little servo arm to initial specs. Push it all the way back into the servo and measure the centre to centre distance of both eyes. Follow the procedure I outlined in that thread to get the clutch arm correct and when happy, finally torque it to 22 Ft/Lbs and scribe a new line to use for your particular combo.

Hi

I just looked up what I did on both My gearboxes...
I took the servo off...
pushed the clutch arm as far forward as I could go
then done the bolt up...

and adjusted the servo adjuster...

none of My manuals seemed to help Me... rather confused Me... lol

but its great once everything is going great...

and you have a reliable car....
