Hi Al,

It's possible that your clutch system is working just fine, and that you don't have a broken fork pin or air in the system or anything like that, and still not have the clutch work properly. If your thrust washers have dropped out, it will give all the symptoms of a malfunctioning clutch. The crank shaft just slides forward in the journals and then doesn't provide any force to push back on the slave cylinder. I'm painfully familiar with this phenomena.
