John; Where do you come up with this stuff?! first the organ thing with the monkey then this one about the fart in the elevator. I almost fell out of my chair laughing! |
| Seriously though, the splines are fine on the clutch discs/plates, flywheel and input hub. |
computer the first time.
| There was some leakage from the front seal but mostly it was the pushrod. |
keeps the oil from leaking out of the back of the trans rather than into
the clutch area. If there's oil on the clutch it's either the rear
engine seal or the trans input seal, which should both be replaced any
time you're in there.
| The discs and plates were covered in a gummy mix of oil and clutch dust. |
blast the discs and plates. If the discs are laminated and glued
instead of riveted, take care or else the friction material may
delaminate (don't soak or blast too long). Ask me how I know. If you
think about how much trouble it is to get in there, you might just bite
the bullet and pop for a new clutch.
