TR3's and I believe 4's had a return spring on the clutch
slave cyl. with and adjustable length rod going to the
clutch release arm. The spring would pull the slave back
into the cylinder and the clearance between the T.O..
bearing and the P. Plate was controlled by the adjustable
arm. With the 6's they removed the spring and the arm is
fixed length. When the clutch is released everything goes to
the '0' state, but there is not necessarily and clearance
between the P. Plate and T.O.. bearing. Maybe going back to
the TR3 configuration would alleviate the squeal problem.
