I installed the upgraded clutch hydraulics with the Valiar adjustable master cylinder rod. I am pressing the clutch pedal and it will not break the plastic tie on the slave cylinder. I adjusted the rod slightly out and tried again. I have pumped the pedal numerous times and looked for any leaks and see none. Does anyone have any ideas why it will not move enough to break the plastic tab? Pedal feels good, same as before I installed the upgrade. Should I keep adjusting the rod out until it breaks? I went about 1/8" already and the instructions say to start with it all the way in until the truck starts. The truck does start, it just will not break the plastic or go into gear since the rod isn't out all the way on the slave yet. Thanks, Jason


EDIT: One thing I just thought of - when I bolted the slave to the transmission, it would only go on far enough for a few threads to start, I had to push it towards the trans to start the nuts, then I tightened it down with the nuts to install it. How far away should the slave be from sitting flush when installing it? I am thinking this has something to do with why it won't break the plastic strap. Perhaps the throw out bearing or pressure plate is messed up instead?
