Surprise clutch thing

[jk952]

Had the engine out this week for a possible issue unrelated to the clutch: noticed the D ring that activates the clutch was significantly worn from rubbing against the release bearing! Oddly it wasn't noisy enough to think there was a problem, or at least in my hearing frequency, and the clutch worked fine. It was only partially out of position on one side, little springs still in place. I suspect the clutch lever was bumped when putting combined eng/trans into the car partially dislodging the D ring off the groove.

There you go, something new to fret about

My clutch fork waited until everything was in place before it gleefully tinkled its self apart. many strong epithets and Anglo Saxon mutterings ! Ed
