your previous post from 10,000 miles away it seemed the transmission wasn=
=E2=80=99t fully disengaging from the flywheel when you depressed the clutc=
h. The hydraulic issues have been eliminated. Other possible area to check =
is the input shaft. Could it be binding in the Spigot Bush (pilot bearing o=
n this side of the pond)? This is SWAG but is there any slop in the clutch =
lever bushings. Is the release bearing new and does it have the same dimens=
ions as the previous one? Perhaps the additional thickness of a new clutch =
disc isn=E2=80=99t allowing it to fully disengage from the flywheel. Don=E2=
=80=99t take this the wrong way but was the wrong side of the disc towards =
the flywheel?</p><p class=3DMsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=3DMsoNo=
