I have already tried to bleed the clutch many times and it has not
helped. As well, the strange ticking while disengaging the clutch w/
the trans in neutral leads me to believe that it is an internal problem
and not a slave cylinder. I also watched the slave cylinder's arm go up
and down as the pedal was pushed so I'm afraid I'm stuck!
