Lost drive

Post by Kit » Fri Apr 01, 2022 4:18 pm

Jan took our 24v out to do shopping on Wednesday, while I was away in Scotland working.
Well, she came back in a RAC van, as the car was recovered back.
Called in at the local shop, started to come back home, couldn’t engage gears.
Now back home , I’ll look at it & you have lost all drive :x
But, I only replaced the clutch last year :o

So, what gone wrong :?:
The clutch pedal feels good, the slave cylinder piston, pushing the clutch release bearing fork OK :?


What do I do now :|

Hate to say it but it sounds like the box has to come off to check the Clutch at least.
If everything is ok then it sounds like it’s internals on the Box ☹️☹️☹️

That’s what I think, as well. But it won’t be this weekend :cry:

Need to come up with a “Plan B”, so Jan can have a car :?:

Do triple check that the slave cylinder IS pushing the clutch push rod , etc, properly before doing the big job.
