I recently had a leaky clutch slave cylinder. I replaced the slave and the master cylinder. Bled the system. Adjusted the freeplay to spec. The pedal feels great I am getting 1.5 cm travel from the slave cylinder - But my clutch will not release. WHAT gives.
How much travel am I supposed to get?

See Brian Bucklands manual - it goes into measurements needed comprehensively - unless it is just a jammed plate.

Weird.
no I wouldn't have expected a stuck plate after such a short break....I would suspect maybe a leak from rear crankshaft oil seal which can soften and stick the plate friction material......
