    Re: changing clutch without taking engine out

    Good luck guys . quite cold out .

    Just been fitting a new clutch on mine today and its brass monkeys. Done it with the engine in and has taken me about a full day so far.

    All those standard brackets make it a lengthy job .

    You'll probably be glad like me to get back up and running.

    Re: changing clutch without taking engine out

    Howd you chaps get on?.

    Another cold day for me and i'm nearly finished. Took it for a role around the block and its nearly ready.

    Got a slight blow on the exhaust from the spacer/gasket part. Need to tighten the subframe bolt as it was just spinning .

    Clutch is now on the floor but that will probably come up comfortably a little once its had a spin.
