Yesterday:
park up to price a job (joiner)
return to landie and clutch feels soft on the pedal
ho hum, set off and over 1 mile clutch becomes totally ineffective. crash box it home with hardly a crunch (been here before you see) using lanes and avoiding give ways as much as possible. lucky on junctions. check reservoir. empty just about.
refer to manual this morning. Rover green bible says remove floor/tunnel to access slave cylinder. blast. all screws and bolts now effectively the same metal as surrounding environment. forsee unpleasant afternoon with drill and grinder. spot useful looking 2" grommet on tunnel. remove said grommet to reveal bleed nipple. hooray. bleed clutch. drive off. replace grommet and carpet.
note: must try and find source of original fluid loss.
WHY NO MENTION OF SAID GROMMET IN THE MANUAL?
remove tunnel my ar$e !
