Hey, this as NOTHING to do with the clutch itself!

Mark is about right.

Your problem is between the master and the release arm/shaft/fork, so how is
that realease arm? (is the shaft and forks that push the release bearing
called "release arm"????), if yes, is this one turning smoothly????, is it
worned out behind repare??? is the slave doing is job? is the master good???
