Clutches again!

Stripped it down again - an hour and a quarter!
Ok, it looks like picture 20 on the clutch guide "noisy clutch" section. I guess that means I fitted it the wrong way round! On the bright side the damage looks to be superficial so I am going to go ahead and rebuild. If I can get it all done tonight o will be a happy chappy!

Well discretion is the better part of valour! The light started to go, so I called it a day. The gearbox was being a bitch to get back on, just wouldn't slide back on the shaft. After several tries I gave up, secured then engine, and will try again tomorrow. As long as it doesn't rain too much, with better light and a rest, it shouldn't be too much hassle...

It can help to have someone turning the crank from the pulley end.

Yeah! I was by my lonesome, trying to wiggle the gearbox, and twist the driveshaft with my feet to align the splines, but no joy!

There's usually something printed/stamped on the plate ....................... or have I just imagined that?

That'll be the side that goes against the flywheel then ;)

I need to check for that, I am now worried that in fact I have the plate the right way round, and the problem is something else :(. The manual states " When refitting the clutch driven plate the smaller boss of the hub should face towards the flywheel" and I think that was the case when i first fitted it. I'm confused now!

I don,t think its easy to fit it the wrong way, as it won,t sit flat :)
