Default Clutch Push Rod - Which way?

Does the pointy end go into the slave or the clutch fork? I can't remember and it doesn't show it in the FSM. My bet is on the clutch fork, but I wanted to double check.

thanks,
Joe

Good question!
I'm thinking the tapered end goes into the slave.
Look at figure 7C-11 on page 8 of chapter 7C with a magnifying glass and it looks like the ball end goes into the fork. If you're going to put it in the way you guessed I would check to see if the ball seats in the slave cup fully. It may not so the smaller ball on the tapered end of the pin might have to go into the slave.
