Let me start off with this, I have been having a clutch drag issue since I first drove the car (151 miles on it now) after being fully built.
New parts are as follows and all BRAND NEW:
I bleed the crap out of the clutch with a vacuum bleeder and by pressure with a C clamp. I had better success by having my clutch adjusted according to Jacks Transmission then by the FSM, but shouldn't the pedal have free play? (jacks eliminates all free play) I pulled the clutch out and sent it back in to PTT for them to check for a bent disk or if anything was wrong with the actual clutch and they said it was perfectly fine. The clutch is suppose to work with all OEM components plus the Isuzu slave cylinder which is suppose to help with easing engagement. I think I pretty much burnt myself out (as you can tell by my rant) mentally/physically/and financially trying to fix this problem.
BTW it is a Brand new Shep STG 4 transmission.
I know this post is all over the place but I can't really think right now and need some help. Thanks in advance!!!
