Hello I have a unique tractor, it is a Pasquali articulated tractor. It is unique but IM sure some things are very similar. Recently the clutch started to not fully disengage fully, my auto mechanic took a look at it and adjusted the clutch cable to tighten it up and it was fine, for awhile. It happened again and so I tightened it more. This has continued to happen this summer and when it starts to act up it has been getting worse each time. Ive tightened the clutch cable up so much that im afraid Ive over done it. Now when I start the tractor with it in gear and my foot on the clutch the tractor will move.
Ive read some posts and it sounds like the throwout bearing is gone and in my attempt to fix it Ive be running the clutch partially dis engaged (cable to tight) and this may have damaged the fingers on the clutch plate (that sound right?)
So at this point it sounds like it needs to be broken open to repair the clutch, the tractor is an articulated unit so attempting this for me is out of the question. Do you think a standard tractor company would be able to tackle this and if so how much would something like this cost to repair?
Thanks
Phil
