Ok ill look at my fsm. I got in it today and going good then i got a hair cut got in and same problem so im confused i have been through it all but i guess this gremlin needs a diffrent person to work it out.

I had a brand new slave cylinder that leaked in the middle of its travel. It moved correctly, when viewed by eye, and actuated the clutch but when it got warm it would leak more and I would get less travel. Grinding reverse, hard to get in to first, etc. The problem was sporadic like you're describing so it was hard to diagnose. I knew I had a leaking cylinder though, when I took the rubber boot off of the slave cylinder and it had fluid inside. Take yours off, it should be dry inside. If not, get a new slave cylinder and take it apart and clean the insides before installing. The quality control at the manufacturing plants is poor and some of them get shipped out with machining and honing grit inside which tears up the seal.

That makes perfect sense i took it apart when i first got it and came apart to easy and did not fit right when i put it on. That and the rod is adjusted out on the master i have no free play. At allwell i know what im doing after work that and getting some bushings just for good measure she is old and needs the love.

I have no peddle play and o think i have the wrong slave its hard to install i have to push the fork iut if the way to get it in. Could just doing the clutch help and i can start fresh and just have a shop do the ajust that i need?

Sorry silvey, but reading your posts is like reading gibberish. Can't tell what you've done, are doing, or trying to say. There is plenty of information out there about the slave cylinder and how it can go wrong, how to check it, and how to fix it. Good luck.

Yea computer is down sorry for that but the phone hates me but it is all i have. I just need to know if i have to push the clutch fork back and then install the slave is it the wrong one it seems like a bad fit to me.
