So, after nearly a month of daily driving she finally cut out on me. First cold morning of the season and my clutch has apparently failed. I was shoving the gearshift into each gear all the way to work and I've parked her in the garage until further notice to get the parts.

After massive troubleshooting I originally thought the slave cylinder was bad. So I ordered a rebuild kit, and commenced to rebuilding. After many days, I concluded the slave cylinder was good. After a bit more work and finally LOOKING at the seals on the master cylinder I've decided it's bad. See the pattern? Ordered the rebuild and replaced almost everything in the master cylinder for $7. Oh yeah, like that better than $160. Turns out it bleeds a hell of a lot better when the master cylinder is good. So, clutch it back online.

While I was waiting for clutch parts I took the valve cover off and adjusted the valves. I also screwed with the carburetors since I'd never properly adjusted them which resulted in an idle speed of 1300. With the valves adjusted and the carbs now setup it sounds like it's running alot better. Unfortunately, my carbs are so out of tune I can't get it to idle more than 5 seconds. Alot of tuning ahead of me.

I'll post pictures of my shiney slave cylinder as soon as I get my camera charged up...
