RE: [DML] Shifting and sealing problems, M/T

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan, There are 2 seals inside the clutch master that we make new. The one on
the end of the plunger may not be sealing properly and allowing fluid to go
back into the reservoir when the peddle is depressed. Normally it would show
up in all gears when shifting and you wouldn't have full travel of fluid to
the slave.
The lip seal is a combination of seal and O Ring. Did you replace both. The
seal I use is a double lip, lip seal.
