P.S. Before you do that check the adjustment of the slave cylinder push rod.
It might be a simple matter of the clutch not fully engaging. There should
be a bit of play in the rod if you pull against the spring. If it is tight,
loosen the lock nut and screw the rod into the clevis until you do.
Check the easy stuff first.
