I don't know what the correct spec is but my general rule is that =
if it=20
is supposed to move, use grease; and if it is not supposed to move =
use=20
anti-seize. ( I get kind of annoyed at the people who demand only =

a very=20
poor grease substitute on moving parts.)

Hey guys,
Anybody on-list close enough to come to North/Western NC next =
weekend? The Triumph Club of the Carolinas annual event 'The Gathering' =
is at Sheldon Vineyards in Dobson, NC. Info =
atwww.triumphclub.org<http://www.triumphclub.org>. It's a 3 day event, =
but Friday is mostly a self-guided tour around some nice mountain and =
foot-hill back roads and Sunday morning is a really fun auto-cross. The =
main car show is all day Saturday of course. Just to be clear, this is =
April 15, 16, & 17. The vineyard is about 10 miles south of the NC/VA =
line on I-77.
Maybe reply if you might be there. I will be as long as the =
weather is nice. I think I'll drive the Spit this year.
Sloane [😊]

The normal hole to use is the center hole.?=20
If you have had to add fluid after bleeding then where did the =
fluid go?? Check to see where the fluid went.
One thought here is to safely jack the car up and see if you have =
excessive movement in the clutch fork. This can be done with the slave =
rod disconnected from the arm. A small piece of pipe may help for =
leverage to see if you feel a catch in the movement.? If so then you may =
have a broken pin in the clutch fork.
