Hi everyone. After searching post after post and not finding an answer I am now breaking down and posting a question for you all.
I have a 97 ranger 2.3L. Replaced the T/O bearing, slave cylinder, and master-to-slave line(i broke old one), clutch looked real good, so didnt touch it. Pulled out hydraulic system and worked air bubbles out, just like the Perfection guy said to. Reinstalled it, gravity bled(many times).
First time i got it all back together it shifted great. Went to the store, and got almost back and the clutch wouldnt fully disengage, even when pumping the pedal. Since then, ive removed the hyd system again to get air bubbles out, gravity bled several times, even tried the pump and hold, crack open bleeder, method with no improvement.
I would think maybe there's still air in the system, but when i watch through the bellhousing peephole the slave cylinder has really good travel. I couldnt find a spec on how far the T/O bearing needs to depress the plate fingers to fully disengage.
Im at a loss here. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
