Thanx to all for your prompt replies. I'm certain that the disc is facing correctly...it was labeled as such from the factory. All of the slack is out of the linkage, but the only return spring is from the arm to the engine, to return the arm after it is actuated.

We put the drive shaft yolk on the output shaft and used an 8" pry bar to rotate the shaft.I'd say it took about 40-50# of force. It seems like you could hear the disc against the flywheel.

I'll have to measure the throw of the slave linkage.

thanx again.
