The worst case scenario happened!
The master cyl. is bad. My guess is the stiffer pressure plate on the clutch killed my mc. You can see fluid on the inside of the foot well by the plunger on the clutch.
Edit: I didn't give the syptoms- I can build pressue then when the slave starts to finnaly move the fork I lose all pressure in the clutch pedal. Then we did it all again and the same happened. That's how I got my hypothesis

I got a pretty good price on the master and slave so I am just going to replace them both. ($24-master $23.50-slave) Anyway I am guessing it will take about 2hrs to do both but the damn hobby shop will be closed for the hollidays.
So I have a lightened flywheel and new clutch and can't use them...yet

k

BTW West, I will do a write-up w/ pics on those too
