this happened to me its your clutch cylinder thats on your trans and also check your fluid level....change your lines or buy a new clutch cylinder thats on your trans directly and check out the one on your firewall too.

good luck bro

Wow can't believe it bent the pin, post up a pic when you get home so others can see what happened. You'll know right away if its not the wedge collar (a.k.a TOB Clip) as the clutch fork will be in the middle normal spot of its throw when you take off the clutch slave cylinder....

FYI I have a clutch fork stop and had the clip pop off anyways, it was explained to me that occasionally this does happen, and it can be the TOB itself not "holding on"...

I hope not.. I already had that issue and taking down the tranny ain't no joke lol.. I'm gona check it today.. I doubt it popped out cause I was still able to change a few gears I just had to press down on the clutch really hard and rev a bit and they slid right in.. ill post sum pics up so u guys can see.. lol..

Now I thought if the clip was to pop out it wouldn't be driveble.. or am I wrong..

Your problem seems to be defintely, master, slave or line related. You probably have a leak that has finally let all the fluid out and not giving you back pressure.

haha, no you're right 99% of the time...

1% would be when I started mine in 1st gear and ran several stop signs at a blistering 15mph to get it back home so I could fix it

alright guys so theres the pic of the clutch slave how it bent... now one thing i was looking at is the position of the shift fork.. now isnt suppose to be away from the motor not toward the motor.. the slave isnt even touching it and the fork is in that position... i think the damn tob came out.. aaggggaaiiinnnn.. wat do u guys think..

your TOB clip fell off...

Strange how it bent the rod? Maybe the rod over extended after the tob fell off and wedged at a angle against the fork?

I'm saying.. but im not sure is the fork suppose to sit there.. or go back if the clip was still on..

so i came to my conclusion.. im gonna get the tilton clutch kit, but the one that is the push version.. its like 1700 for it.. but i know i wont have to drop this damn tranny again for one damn stupid clip.. i luv my evo.. but sh*t like this makes me wana part from it.. lol..

Look through the inspection holes on the bellhousing and see whats going on with the tob.

Just out of curiosity how many miles on that clutch and who installed it?
