This can be done with the slave rod disconnected from the arm. A small piece of pipe may help for leverage to see if you feel a catch in the movement. If so then you may have a broken pin in the clutch fork.</div><div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7460"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7459"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7066"><span id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7440">Dale</span></div><div class="yiv7817718244qtdSeparateBR" id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7067"><br clear="none"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv7817718244yahoo_quoted" id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7073" style="display:block;"> <div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7072" style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:14px;"> <div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7071" style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <div class="yiv7817718244yqt7432867841" id="yiv7817718244yqt43343"><div dir="ltr" id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7070"> <font id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7069" face="Arial" size="2"> </font><hr id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7068" size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> John Summers via 6pack <6pack@autox.team.net><br clear="none"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">To:</span></b> "6pack@autox.team.net" <6pack@autox.team.net> <br clear="none"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">Sent:</span></b> Saturday, April 9, 2016 9:47 PM<br clear="none"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">Subject:</span></b> [6pack] My darned clutch slave<br clear="none"> </div> <div class="yiv7817718244y_msg_container" id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7078"><br clear="none"><div id="yiv7817718244"><div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7077"><div id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460285770196_7076" style="color:#000;background-color:#fff;font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"><div dir="ltr" id="yiv7817718244yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460250925971_4936">I'm wondering if there is anyone there:)) I changed my clutch slave cylinder and bled it.
