Well I figured it out and it was one of my two guesses....either the clutch fork (wasn't it) or the throw out bearing snap ring....you guessed it!

Now to see if I can find a throw out bearing snap ring on Saturday, plus I need a clutch alignment tool, hopefully I can source something.

What a pisser!
Contact Lart, he will have any of the small parts you need

Doesn't need any parts, the retaining ring was put on backwards....so it couldn't capture the clip. Flipped it around and it's all good. Now to put it back together.

Did you get the clutch aligment tool?

Paul Waterloo

Its good to know we will have one more 944 running on illinois streets!

It's done! What a total PITA. Taking the transmission down, moving the torque tube, removing the bell housing....not so bad. But Those four of five little screws/nuts/bolts for the wiring/speed sensor/grounds sucked so bad.

I think I had about 17 hours of work into it to flip a beveled washer.....

But I drove it home today it 90 F weather, first time since the tune.....OMG, this car is fast! On the highway it super fast!
