Rodger/Greg, thanks for the feedback. I think it must be in the spacing. I just did not have time to measure Today. I still think I am not good at putting the problem into words. I did not have to pump the pedal to get movement. I was speaking about pedal being hard and if I open the bleeder I could pump the pedal then. I believe the bearing never fully engagded the clutch fingers.
With the bearing out I was able to get the movement of the bearing with one step on the pedal and was wondering if the pressure plate overcomes the bearing thus returning the pedal from the floor because it remained hard. It seems logical that the pressure plate should return the pedal linkage? I will report back when I get info.

Thanks,
