Lads, my baby let me down this evenin on the way home from Ratoath, I lost my clutch pedal and couldn't get gear. Anyways i managed to get her home and it turned out that the rubber hose from the bulkhead feed to the clutch slave cylinder had perished and ruptured. Earlier symptoms of this began with the pedal beginning to stick half way on me, so if this is happening to you, get it checked now rather than breaking dow!! I'll be hopefully replacing this tomorrow - its really handy so I doubt anyone would need a how-to but I'll take pics just in case.

Cheers,

Derek
