  1. I could just re use the old clutch I suppose. There's nothing to suggest it's on it's way out. is it worth a look to see how much is left on it?
  2. There’s this on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/293261524634
  3. Peanuts sounds good! That’s the 2ltr one right? So I’ll save money in the long run too. I’ll wait until I’ve got the box off (post apocalypse) and then I can order everything to make that work. it was “restored” just before I bought it, so maybe the PO already converted the flywheel. There is pvc tape on the wires to the overdrive switch, which makes me think it’s been out relatively recently.
  4. What could possibly go wrong? i suppose I’ll just have to wait and see when I ‘pop’ the gearbox off. I’m pretty sure I have everything I need even instructions! cheers!
  5. Good point. I’m not in a rush though. I imagine it’ll be a month before I’ll be thinking of taking the gearbox up to Luton.😢
  6. Excellent. I was wondering. Hopefully I can get on with it before too long!
  7. Lovely. I can do that. Probably change the clutch too!
  8. I mean the gear changes that work are really sweet now. 😂
  9. I’m sure I could pop up with the box and a cold beer when travel permits. my mother lives in Harpenden so I’m up quite often.
  10. It was sudden. sounds like a job to save for post lockdown. I’ll look at pictures of gearboxes to smarten up for it. can the gearbox be removed up into the car or would I need a ramp?
  11. I can pull off in 2nd fine. that’s a shame though. I was convinced it was fixed
  12. All the other gears are as normal. unfortunately I’m still using it to get to work. I’ve started as a Sainsbury’s delivery driver. i do have the motorbike but I’d much rather take the car. I suppose it’s still drivable. god knows when a trip to Luton will be allowed but That would help!
  13. I’ve bled the clutch still the same double de clutch doesn’t work either.
  14. I can get more travel if i put a spanner on the clutch fork and pull it
  15. Disaster! Took it for a drive and the problem is still there. Exactly the same. How very depressing. What's the next thing to check? The clutch feels fine, should I bleed it anyway?
  16. I used some threadlock on it too. Hopefully that'll help. Cheers!
  17. All done! what a transformation. It’s so tight and precise like a car off the tele! what a satisfying job. Thank you!
  18. The white ones seem better in the larger middle fork either side of the rubber Bush and insert
  19. I undid that square headed bolt already! So i could twist the shaft to get the bolt out. It was bloody tight! Oh dear
