Dear List, While I'm almost ready to "start the engine up" for the first time, a problem has come up in my TDI conversion that doesn't make sense: There is no movement in the clutch release arm. The slave cylinder is fully compressed. The clutch seems to be too far into the tranny bellhousing. What did I do wrong???? NOTE: I installed the clutch and TD flywheel supplied to me by Winkler. Also, the tranny has the shorter diesel "main shaft". Cheers, Michael J.
