hi Gerry,
  can't help you with the end play problem, but i just changed my clutch
(endplay was okay) and almost overlooked the gasket ring inside the
flywheel. totally crumbly ! it wasn't in the clutch kit i got from rocky mtn.
motorworks so i had to get it locally. only couple of bucks. i don't think
this will fix your problem, but one thing less overlooked is one nightmare
less coming up, rite ???
