Eric -- Thanks again; did a pseudo bench bleed this AM, but the problem was
really a mismatch in components. The master was 5/8 in. (.625), the slave
.70 bore. So, after removing etc, I put on a girling unit.. not TR6, but
off an early jag. Was new; bolted right on, and the clutch now works... One
of these days I must replace the pedal bearing ass'y, it's showing signs of
wear; but it should; it's 31 years old!
Thanks again Eric
Ken
