[Healeys] slave push rod

Hi Mitch,
When you have everything installed just check to ensure that when the clutch
is in its normal rest position you can push the slave cylinder piston back
sufficiently to produce a little play between it and the rod.
i.e. in the normal position the piston is not fully at the bottom of the
slave cylinder thus preloading the clutch release mechanism against the
release bearing.
