I tried a modified slave with an extended rod.

Enough with the bleeding, already. Re-read the posts, there is NO air in the lines mang.

Are you sure you are using the correct pivot fork? If you use one from, say, a dual mass clutch car, you will have these exact symptoms. Ask me how I know.

ALL ZF SG320/310 transmissions were paired with DUAL MASS flywheel from BMW. there is no such thing as a ZF5 speed single mass clutch (not from bmw).

clutch fork is only avail in dual mass to match the OEM dual mass only flywheel and clutch.

UUC sells their aftermarket single mass setup; no instructions are given by uuc to change the clutch fork for one that does not exist. BMW never put a E34M5 clutch in a E36M and sold it as OEM to customers new in production cars.

How's it feel now? :D

Made and adjustable pivot pin today, but will let Johnny Cash tell you about it.

Well there it is..

Solution was an adjustable pivot ball.




Threaded rod/alan set screw, with locking nut outside, 2" of adjustment.
Adjustable clutch engagment on the fly. FINALLY FIXED.

I misspoke. I was thinking of the self adjusting clutch, and apparently dual mass came out of my brain.
