I verified in the book and it is a 1/16th inch minimum. It is definately more than that.
We bled the new slave cylinder until clean fluid came out. It actuates the same distance that the old did. I looked up in the Haynes manual and it suggests a hyd leak. We couldn't find any. As I was thinking about it though, I remembered there was a bit (couple teaspoons) of fluid in the tranny shroud under the clutch. Could that be something? We ran it and played with the clutch for over an hour and didn't see anything leaking. Any ideas?
We may just end up throwing a clutch at it. Kinda expensive to do without throughly troubleshooting it. When the tranny shops didn't even look at it and diagnosed it as being a clutch we were a bit leary. I've learned over the years not to trust mechanics. The good ones are few and far between. |
