Hi Bob,
Not greasing the tip of the shaft could contribute to this but i`m
thinking maybe the clutch isn`t disengaging properly. How much play does the
clutch fork have at the slave cylinder end? I tend to adjust mine so the
fork can move back and forth just a little off the pushrod(out of slave
cylinder).
To do this, remove the return spring that hooks onto the clutch fork and the
slave cylinder, then hold the fork and move it back and forth (you will feel
it stop as it touches the fingers of the pressure plate).
If you have and adjustable push rod, adjust it to suit, if not there`s not
much you can do. sorry.
If you want and adjustable one i can probably get you one and mail it to you
if you like or have a look on some 1600`s.
Kris.
ps: sorry for the late reply.
