Hi all, put my box back on yesterday, all seemed to be ok, went on relatively easy. Come to fit starter motor, clutch slave cylinder etc today and noticed that the clutch operating arm (not sure what the technical term is) was at a bit of an odd angle - it appears slightly twisted. Not sure how this can happen if the shafts are all lined up correctly and the gearbox is straight (I'm pretty sure it is). There is no play at all in the clutch arm when the box is tightened up - is this correct?

 

Advice appreciated. This is doing my nut in!!

 

Cheers

Has one of the clutch fork ends come dislodged?

The clutch fork is held in by a spring and it might well have come off when you put the box back in?

If it's not moving though that sounds like it's seated OK?

You might be able to move the fork if you get your foot on it and push hard? Not sure just how stiff it is but if it moves OK then it must be right.

Hi guys. Took the b*stard box off AGAIN! and good job I did, fork had come adrift from the back of the bearing, must have been due to me abusing it during reinstallation ;-)

 

Thanks for the advice anyway...
