Finally got the car on the road after fixing a blown head gasket. I got about three miles from home, started up a hill, alll of a sudden a loud, heavy clank started in the engine. Called AAA for a to

I'd say there's a distinct possibility that the crank is gone. Some years ago the crank on my TD broke in downtown Monterey...clutched in for a stoplight and suddenly it's like somebody is banging th

Hmmmm, I felt nothing when I clutched. Maybe I just broke a con rod. I'll take it apart tomorrow and find out. Ron 58 MGA

I guess another factor is that the TD had a direct mechanical linkage from the pedal through a solid clutch rod to the pivot to another clutch rod directly to the throw-out lever on the clutch. If yo

All manner of horrors could have let loose in there, however, don't discount the easy things, especially since you have to remove so much to get the head off. Is something hitting the fan? Is the exh

I have never encountered a broken crankshaft, so I don't know first hand what its syptoms are. However, I would think that if you have compression in all four cylinders, and its uniform at about 135
