Hi Guys,

Let me explain, i drive a Uno Fire 1994 1100, should be mk2 i think, anyways the welsh plug went on the gearbox side, so i pulled it apart and replaced the plug, went smooth, now the problem is, the clutch is not like it use to be, i had to pull of the pressure and clutch plate with the flywheel to get to the plug.

Its like it shuddering or jerking, can seem to know if it slipping or something, but the main question i wane ask is, is it possible to install the plate the wrong way around? what could posibly cause the jerking, its mostly notable in 1 - 2 gear.

The plate wasn't replaced long ago, maybe 20k so it still seemed pretty good.
 
Is it possible you could of damaged the pressure plate part of the clutch when reassembling it? So when the pressure plate engages with the clutch plate it's causing a shudder as the clutch plate is not biting evenly? I had this once with a ford escort. A new clutch sorted it.
 
Also if you left the gearbox hanging on the clutch plate splines it could of bent the clutch plate thus causing a shudder when taking up the bite due to bent clutch plate.
