Message	I just did a full reverse bleed today. I am positive that all of the air is out of the lines. Unfortunately, it still is not working. Upon start up, I cannot shift gears at all. The pedal is adjusted as far as I dare risk it without fear of the rod falling out of the pedal. While under the car, I felt the clutch fork. It has slight play but it is very minor. Is this normal or is the slave piston supposed to be 100% up against the fork? I can't remember if it backs off a bit while the car is off or not. The biggest upset is that the Bill of Lading states the shipping company is not liable for any mechanical failures en route including the clutch. I am pretty ticked right now since it worked fine when it went on the truck and doesn't engage at all now. Any more ideas now? ----------------------------------------------------- Never Play Leapfrog With A Unicorn!!! Do yourself a favor and just worry about your own car. I don't see what everyone is so worried about anyway. If someone else wants to perform a modification that you believe will destroy the value, cheapen the Z32 or whatever you can't sit on your hands about, wouldn't that make your tastefully-modified, white bread Z32 more rare and valuable? -- BradZ (FL) on December 23, 2007 at 12:19 PM The unicorn gets its revenge... -- Scotts94z32 on September 19, 2006 at 11:12 AM CLICK FOR DETAILS ABOUT BUYING A ZAMA POSTER!!!!
