removed gearbox again, clutch must of been slipping due to oil leak from crank seal
was not bone dry last time i took box off tried to give car benefit of the doubt... silly me
few weeks later oil leak got worse... then causing standard clutch to slip at high RPM
oil and heat spots on flywheel
bought new flywheel bolts from Peugeot
also sourced new clutch cover to flywheel bolts
doesnt look like much but was a fair bit of oil about engine bay
cleaned as much up as i could with dry rags
got an Engineering firm in Inverness to grind flywheel flat
replaced crank seal had a Pug mechanic doubt check my fitting skills of the seal
possibly controversial but refitted my "old" Helix paddle, wasnt much wear in it. Cleaned up Clutch cover plate with clutch cleaner.
car isnt used that much and they arent exactly cheap - could not really justify another £400/500 buying Paddle full kit
gearbox back in..... again
starting to get a bit cold for all this carry on, car back together done a few hundred miles in last two weeks cars back in storage for now! Car feels great in the dry not much fun in busy traffic!
Planning 2.5 inch bore exhaust instead of the wee restrictive 2" Scorpion... still to go see Longlife
half planning Magnex even if it is a temporary fix for now.
