I think something in my clutch system is about to die.  Is there any
provision for adjusting the clutch pedal?  I replaced the CMC and rebuilt
the CSC about 2 years ago.  How far should the lever on the CSC move when
I push in the pedal?

Should it prove to be the release bearing, how hard is out to remove the
engine and leave the tranny in place?  I only plan on replacing the
release bearing should it prove to be faulty:  I know this is false
economy, but my finances dictate my actions (what a sad world).  I have a
new release bearing sitting in the trunk, but no discs or pressure
plates.

Finally, would someone who has access to a new plate measure the
thickness of the friction material?  Should my plate prove to be
excessively worn (ie - less than 1/2 the thickness of new) I will replace
it.
