Check that bolts on throwout bearing tube are torqued correctly and that the threads are ok. When I rebuilt the clutch housing, and did clutch, I noticed one of mine was stripped. I tapped it. I used Locktite blue medium strength. So far so good! PO's reciepts show 2 complete clutch jobs within a short period of time. There was also mention of the TO tube in one work order. Lube the TO bearing tube. Neil.
