Hi Bob,

I was thinking about the Tilton dual clutch setup my 4 has; the snout is a =
different length that holds the input shaft seal. =C2=A0 Didn=E2=80=99t rea=
lize it until I swapped transmissions and the clutch wouldn=E2=80=99t disen=
gage. =C2=A0Pulled the trans again, and then noticed that the snout on the =
former working setup was machines down for my clutch/flywheel/pressure plat=
e setup. =C2=A0=C2=A0
I=E2=80=99m sure you thought of those things, too, but my symptoms matched =
what you describe.

Hope that provides another clue!

 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
