    I'm out of ideas. My first thought is that the PLCD sensor in the clutch slave isn't working. But since its new maybe you got a bad unit?

    Maybe a wiring issue?

      Appreciate all of the help!
      im on bleed 73 and i think im going to call it, on the INPA.
      im thinking i should drop the tranny and try again, but it shifts smoothly otherwise. Hmmm

        Before dropping the trans you could do a test. I've never done this before but I suspect it would work.

        1. Remove the clutch slave.
        2. Rig up some kind of jig that would act like the clutch fork. A large c clamp with an old clutch fork might work?
        3. Run the clutch bleed procedure and make sure the plunger actually moves.

        Important: do not run the clutch bleed with the plunger in free air or it will pop all the way out of the clutch slave and it will not be repairable.

          The 'important' note is actually very important, don't ask me how I know...
