after some mixed feeling collecting and driving back, she is now home and needs a good clean
outcome - she had a replacement almost new gearbox and new clutch (plus some other bits for the clutch). I noticed a big difference in stop start traffic, very smooth. gear changes also better no longer taking time to change
original clutch condition looked OK to me but informed the springs showed signs of being worn. the original gearbox had only 1L of oil when it was removed, I had a look at the gearbox when I was there and showed no signs of any leaks ?
The gearbox was filled up the week before Bruningthorpe, as its a sealed unit I'm just not sure where else the oil could have gone.
When rotating the axel on the old box, it was clunking a little so need something doing.
my concern is what caused all this ???
Marios did a great job on the invoice, just the taxman and his VAT (if only I could put this down to my business)
looks like next years tours are on again for me
