Dave-
Merry Christmas everyone by the way!
I assume you mean you have the car in gear when you try and start? I can't=
think of a cause for it lurching if you are in neutral - but if so I'd thi=
nk its a gearbox issue not a clutch issue.
If you are in gear, only a few things come to mind - 1) you still have air =
in the clutch hydraulics. 2) If that is unlikely and you see very good tr=
avel on the release arm, then you might have a sheared fork pin as mentione=
d. Or 3) the clutch disk was installed backwards. #3 happens unfortunatel=
y to the best of us!
Cheers
Randy

Merry Christmas, everyone!
I last summer, the type A overdrive in my =9174 TR6 died. John Esposito pro=
vided a newly rebuilt J-type transmission to replace it. have now tried sev=
eral times to install this transmission, replacing the clutch, pressure pla=
te, carrier bushing, release bearing and the clutch slave cylinder too, jus=
t to be sure I was getting off to a fresh start. I have now =93given up=94 =
on it for the winter as it=92s no fun working on it at these temps. Despite=
carefully bleeding the clutch slave, the car lurches when I try to start i=
t, acting like the release bearing is in full-time contact with the pressur=
e plate though I=92ve got good travel on the cross-shaft arm. I tied-off th=
e cross shaft during installation to make sure the release bearing stayed i=
n position but=85. I can=92t think of anything I=92ve overlooked or process=
that I=92ve short-cut. Any ideas you have would be greatly appreciated!
