Recurring clutch issues?

[RETed]

Mazda recommends to grease the pilot bearing and contact surfaces on the transmission input shaft.

As long as the pilot bearing is not sticking out, it should be okay.
There is a corresponding "grease seal" that is supposed to be used.

Good advice here Rick. Did you grease the bearing when it went in? If not go ahead and order another, and since my shoulder isn't broke anymore I can come over and help out this time

Stike 2 out of 3. I have never used gease, and i didn't know about the seal. I feel stupid as hell. I think I am going to start buliding my FSM binder.

I am going to order a new clutch kit. I think a act or something. I am not a fan of the puck style clutch for a DD. This will be done on the lift at the hobby shop.
