Automotive Hydroboost on clutch line (car)
yeah, it's after the overcenter. it's the first (or final, in relation to return) 1/2" of travel or so.- icor1031

nope, it still has the overcenter spring though - that should help it return? if I add more return, what was the point of adding the booster to reduce tension?... lol...- icor1031

Automotive Hydroboost on clutch line (car)
I like it, but it doesn't work right. The pedal won't return fully, sometimes. It sticks where the clutch is worn, so it tells me I need a new clutch. But more importantly, I don't understand why it sticks at all and doesn't return all the way... why does it need my assistance? why isn't the...- icor1031

Hatred. Autos Suck. Anyway, got my booster installed! Pedal travel is Definitely reduced, when vacuum is applied. Without vacuum, it requires normal travel.- icor1031

Alright, ordered the booster. Thanks!- icor1031

Oh... So, what does the bore size of the booster actually do?- icor1031

I'm not replacing the master, this booster goes inline between my existing master and slave.- icor1031

The booster has a 5/8" bore. My master cylinder has a 3/4" bore. This means the pedal travel distance will increase?...- icor1031

thanks! any idea why this guy ended up with less travel?... the other person in this thread also said that shouldn't have happened. http://www.mr2oc.com/188-v6-mr2-forum/456318-lighter-clutch-via-vh44-booster-3.html- icor1031

Sorry, I meant vacuum assist - not hydroboost, which is ran by the PS pump. (no edit button!?)- icor1031

Automotive Hydroboost on clutch line (car)
I want to install a hydroboost (VH44) to make the clutch easier to use (because of an injury/disability). From what I've read, it'll reduce the pedal travel distance *and* tension. What would happen if I installed two hydroboosters, in series? Reduce travel? Tension? Both? Nothing at all...- icor1031

Undergrad About wavefronts/wavelets and the formation of plane waves
From my google search on your term, it looks like I was basically correct? Although I might have the phase issue wrong. :) -

Undergrad About wavefronts/wavelets and the formation of plane waves
The photography book I have talks about waveforms, but it doesn't do a good job of explaining them. So, here's my understanding from the book and google searches (it could be unbelievably wrong.) In an isotropic homogenous medium, light will spread out in all directions, essentially forming a... -

Materials and Particle Trapping
The SPL is high, similar to not using a panel. I'm not sure about decay time, or anything else. It's okay, it goes away if I use *two* layers of felt. :) Thanks again, be well.- icor1031

Materials and Particle Trapping
I'm back, again. :) My plastic sheeting (seems to be .31mil, not 2mil) is causing issues @ 2.5kHz, even with 1 layer of felt on top of it.So, my question: How well will satin work to block particles? It says "100% polyester." If that won't work well, is there a material that you would suggest...- icor1031
