clutch isues

[Spit_Newbie]

Hello all, I'm having some troubles with my 74 Spit. I rebuilt the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder. When i pulled the slave cylinder apart, it was missing the spring. I ordered a new slave cylinder and installed it lastnight. The clutch is still not working properly. I blead it, it feels great but does not inguage all the way. I have it on blocks right now so i can run it through all gears but it grinds. Any suggestions.I'm so close to getting her on the road.

Engage...or disengage? which is your problem? Maybe you still just have a bit of air in the system...or maybe you've got a throwout arm problem, such as the pivot pin on its way out or already fallen out.

Hope it's the former!

Now that you brought up the "pivot pin" , it is sticking out quite a bit. How far should it go into the bell? It is loose enough to pull out by hand. Does this sound like an issue? Thanks, "SpitNewbie"
