You ever have those days where you shouldn't have bothered putting on pants, let alone tried to work on a car ?
So id been having troubles with the gear selection. It had been narrowed down to a failed install of the throwout bearing.
I set about pulling the car apart again to get the engine and box out, as I couldn't see a way to get the box off in situ myself.
This went pretty well and come Monday morning it was mostly apart to pull the engine and box
This went well enough, and come Tuesday I was all set to rip and tear.
Got rhe box off eventually (dont ask) and confirmed the throwout bearing was the problem. The one supplied with the #worstproductever clutch kit had some generic fail clip for the fork.
I did some cutting and bending and lots of swearing to get the clip to hold the fork correctly. But in the end got there.
Then, just to be sure, I pulled the clutch apart as many had mentioned tbe possibility of having fitted the clutch plate backwards.
Turns out I had it right, which was nice.
And there ends the happy. While reassembling the clutch, the pos bolt supplied for pressure plate fitting snapped the head off at 19nm (apparently recommended torque )
So now I have a bolt stuck in the flywheel....
So I pull the flywheel to take it to the bench and try and weld a head onto the bolt.
Spend an hour pulling the fly off cos fuck my life, and then prepping a hollowed out bolt head to weld to the bolt....
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd no fucking gas.
Am so fucking buckled lol
