On the last reply, no, I haven't got a thermometer, good point.
@ kalebevans: Yes, I did buy the adjuster gauge when I bought the clutch rebuild parts. Boy, were you right about needing some fiddling to that that set right, that took a while, even with the gauge. So hypothetically, even with the gauge, let's say my clutch was out of adjustment. In that case, you'd want to tighten the adjuster bolts a little bit, right? To give the three springs longer travel?
