Cannot Get Into Gear

[A//// Guy]

I didnt replace the TOB because I looked throught he inspection hole and it looks intact and doesnt make any more grinding noise. The noise I heard was actually the slave rod scraping against the fork in that little divit.

I tried pulling on the pedal after it is fully let out and it doesnt move so does that factor out a bad pedal assembly? As soon as I move the pedal down even in the play section the master rod does move inwards and then once you reach pressure it is just in further... so its like there isnt enough pressure in the system to have full pressure throughout the pedal travel.

Also I bought a mitsu slave cylinder and the bleeding screw is so small and in the way that I cant fit any size 10 wrench in there. I had to bleed it by just using a long socket over the fitting and just bled it by letting it drip out of the fitting. Can air get sucked back in at all? We push the pedal down open the fitting, let it drip and then close it and release the pedal.

I tried switching slave rods from the 1/4 longer to the stock and that made it worse.

You really think that pivot ball is the problem? And no I dont think you can even get to it through the inspection hole.
