On a TR3A, the slave adjustment will be WAY loose, so much so that you cannot 
adjust it to spec with the stock pushrod & slave
position.

The other dead giveaway is the angle of the clutch lever, when pushed to the 
rear as far as you can by hand.  It should still angle
towards the slave slightly; if it angles the other way, you've probably got a 
broken taper pin.  Might possibly be a TOB or clutch
failure, but either way the gearbox has got to come out.
