No more than 4-6 thousanths? I really don't remember, But I do remember that
you take a bar, or 2x4 and push the front crank pully towards the rear of the
car. The watch it closely while someone pushes the clutch in. if the pully
moves back and forth any appreciable distance, the thrust washers have
dropped.
Of course, if the clutch hydaulics are out, this test won't work.
Assume the worst when negotiating price!
