Im doing my new clutch next weekend, luckily at a mates garage, with full access to ramps and air compressor.

Ive done clutches on other cars no probs, also changed 2 x zed engines (Uno's old one and mine) and auto boxes.

1. What is a rough idea of time scale that others have done them in????

2.Mine is a 94 UK, and has the bleed nipple on the slave, does this help me when i get to bleed it.

 

Honest answers much appreciated.

4 hours provididng everything comes off ok?????

give yourself half a day Stu, its straight forward as long as nothing is seized and you do every thing in the correct order. you wont need to bleed it, just unbolt the slave and hang it up out of the way

just had mine done about 2 weeks ago. the garage quoted me 5 hours (as stated in their manual thingy). I would advise (just as a precaution) to change the rear main gearbox oil seal (where the prop connects to) as mine was leaking after i had the clutch changed so had to take it back, and believe me.... when gearbox oil leaks and drips on to your exhaust.... it fooking stinks! worth changing as it only costs about £7.

^^ Good idea, although even more important would be to change engine rear main seal as its a gearbox off job to replace and its only a £10 part.

fancy doing some pictures stu?

I think i will do, to try and provide a "how to guide" as i havent found one yet on all the zed sites. Done one for the headlights. targa trims, so will try and do it for clutch replacement.
