Hi
We had this problem when we R & R'd a TR6 trans a couple years ago coincidi=
ng with swapping hydraulics while sorting the problem. Turns out the clutch=
 was being over thrown, must of gotten a long throw master or something. di=
scovered this by accident.  =20
   - =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0Dump the clutch to the floor, could not shift
   - =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Put the clutch pedal halfway down gave me proper disenga=
gement etc, and releasing the clutch, no slippage.
   - =C2=A0 =C2=A0 short term fix now in place three years, welded an adjus=
table stop to the clutch pedal limiting the throw so as to not overthrow th=
e PP

Try thatGood luckBrian

  Hi,
This is a TR6. The hydraulics have been bled 4 times, flushed AND the slave=
 replaced, no difference in the behavior. I get 1/2 inch of travel at the s=
lave to the cross-fork arm.
I even tried using the upper hole in the clutch arm in case I was "just a s=
kosh" short of enough motion. No difference.
Seriously, I am puzzled by this.
Oh, and I did try an adjustable push rod.
I need to order a rebuild kit for the clutch MC. With all the spares I seem=
 to have, I don't have any Tilton rebuild kits. SHOCKING!
I'm now going through the tranny to see if I can make it functional and jus=
t put that back in. Yikes.
Between THU and FRI this week, I did EIGHT tranny and clutch swaps. That's =
some physical workout.
Zzzzzzzz
