Kevin,
No clutch burning smell or vibration. Currently no squealing sound, but
every now and then I did get a squealing sound when I depressed the clutch
and put it in gear.
The fork had no play at the hinge joint when it was assembled. Any idea how
much movement I should getting at the slave? When my wife was pushing the
clutch pedal the clutch rod looked like it moved immediately.
