All,

Looking for ideas on a clutch problem I'm having. I installed a new clutch 
assembly and flywheel a wheel a few months back. Initially it would not 
disengage properly at all but after breaking it in it got a lot better - but it 
still dis-engages just off the floor (lower than my ACT xtreme). Just recently 
it has occasionally refused to let me put the car into gear at all, especially 
when cold. It also seems to get a little worse the longer the clutch is down 
(although it bits practically on the floor so any change is noticeable).

I changed the slave cylinder today to see if this would help - and it has made 
no difference, if anything, made things a little worse. On installing I noticed 
that the new slave cylinder 'push rod' is a little shorter than the original, 
by about 3 or 4mm (i.e. the distance between contacting the slave cylinders 
piston and the point the rod contacts the clutch release fork). Would 
installing the slightly longer rod give me more peddle travel/adjustment?

Would replacing the master cylinder help at all? Anything else I can try? The 
peddle has been adjusted as far as it can be.
 
Steve.
