i had new act 2600 in with new disc. got everything install and turn the car on. everything sounds fine.

when i start the car and open the rubber piece on the fork, i can see my clutch pressure plate rattling and shaking really fast. think of it as a back massage vibrater but a little bit more violent. is that normal? no noise or anything.

the only problem is that i couldn't go into gear.
 
so you guys are saying that it shouldn't vibrate like that and that the pressure plate should be still even when the car is on.

i just thought that it could just be the crank/flywheel spinning and causes the plate to vibrate but i was just curious and thought it was normal.

has anyone actually seen theirs in my situation though by opening up your fork rubber piece while the car is on?
