So I installed my fully rebulit MC L-50 tranny about 300 miles ago with a new flywheel, pressure plate, clutch, pilot bearing ect ect...

I've been noticing lately that the let out points been getting further and further back like my clutch is going out but thats impossible. It's only see ONE trail run and probably 280 miles on the road. Havn't riden the clutch hard at all.... but its almost acting like its not there at all.

I'm thinking about bleeding the slave cylinder tomorrow and see if that helps at all.

Anyone got any suggestions?

R.I.P to my Papa, I miss you pops......

Bleed system.  Make sure the lock nut on the pedal push rod is tight.

Yep I'd bleed it and check for leaks.Pull back the rubber boot on the slave cylinder and check it.

Also check the boot on the back of the master. If it is wet replace it cause you arn't getting full stroke out of it.   :thumbs:
