Umm, guys..... Big Fact Hunt did say in his last post it was the clutch fork that had broken And that the fella wanted to know if there is a stronger lifter fork, or a cylinder hydraulic conversion.

HTH

Thats very true, he did say that, but clutch forks usually break due to something else not working correctly, in my experience, anyway

[Jim Archer]

Good point.

he has a camper that he has converted from a 76ps banana to a 115ps (he had the intercooler but i'm not sure if he fitted it).
He could not get any gears and was recover home, he has removed the engine and box and found the clutch fork to be broken.
He enquires whether there is a way to fit a hydraulic clutch or if there are any stronger clutch forks available


and the bit about the disguise relates to him removing the cover over the clutch fork

So can you tell us what is a Constandl in Nottinghamshireish?

If it's an MT75 then the pivot has probably worn through the clutch arm, that's what usually happens to make the clutch arm go slack, take it out weld it up put it back in, that's what i did

Oh sorry i forgiot to take the piss, errr,,, yes funny way to talk, there now i feel like one of the "in crowd"

I think he used Babel Fish to translate. SO the next time any of us are trying to buy something off eBay Germany or France, remember- this is how your message looks to them!

I would say what he is describing is a stiff clutch pedal when the pressure plates collapse, have had this before, and he has pressed the pedal with all his might and the arm has snapped at the cable end
I would say, change the clutch kit and fit a new arm, have found before the pressure plates collapse when keep holding them on the clutch at traffic lights instead of pulling that black notchy lever up behind the gearstick previous experience
