Can't shift, clutch issues

I've hydro'd a solid dowel pin...grease or oil inside wouldn't let it seat all the way. I like the hollow ones for that, and then hate them for how insubstantial they are.

I got one in all the way just hammering a bit more 😩 sucks to not know what you're doing! Lol hopefully that does it. A LOT of work to push dowels in 1mm further but I guess that beats spending a bunch of money

For anyone interested in my struggle bus.

The dowel pins were not the problem, I pushed them in and put it all back together and still had no functional clutch.

My pressure plate is deflecting under the preload from bolting it down. So, maybe I don't have the right one? I have another one showing up today.

Project cars are dumb sometimes
