Adrian,
Sorry I haven't got back to you. I haven't had time to get to this. The
clutch M/C seems to need
another rebuild kit. Got the clutch creep back again that I had in March.
In March, I replace the
slave cylinder and the flexhose. Put a kit in the clutch M/C with it in
place on the car. Replaced the
pushrod on the M/C (the hole in the end for the clutch pedal was worn oval).
Bleed the system. All was right with the world. Last Friday, the clutch
creep came back. Fluid is not down in the M/C. I will try bleeding the
system again, but I suspect the bore of the M/C is pitted. I will have it
resleeved in brass by Apple Hyd. or White Horse Restorations. Any
recommendations concerning these two?
Bill
