[Spits] Spit clutch adjustment

[Joe Curry]

You night have worn thrust washers allowing the crank to float rather than
release the clutch.  Check the end float by pushing back on the crank pulley
nut and then measure how far it travels when the clutch is depressed.

The clutch on my 76 spit suddenly fails to disengage when hot. The  shop
manual  does not mention any adjustment procedure. Does that mean either air
in the hydraulics or worn clutch bearing?
