Ok Folks been trawling the threads for the last few days over the Gear engagement issue i have on The Diesel Conny...
Well the box was always very slightly notchy nothing to write home about.
As i have staretd using it more for the 8 mole trip to work having gained employment again with agency mind...
The gear selection got more notchy then difficult when it did engage there was a slight knock as it didso.
Noticeable on first really.
Now took car off road parked up the side of the house was leaving till weekend having sprayed a bearing libricant type jobby By Bilt Hamber... seamed to make a bit of difference.
Was going to change the gear oil see if that helped, i did notice some fluid round the master cylinder cap but wanted to change the gear oil take her for a run and see how she went and if pumping the pedal through the gears showed any leaking from the master cylinder.
However my good lady needed her car today well yesterday now...:D
So jumped in the rover and could not select any gear....:mad:
Got 4th briefly but no point to that, especially with brick wall in front of the car....
So had to drag the good lady's scooter out and shoot of to work.
So the biting point all the time i have had the 75 has been very lowdown had no issue with that.
The pedal rises and falls ok.
So the no selection at all could this be down to the master cylinder?
The 2 selector cables are they for the gear changes thats another area is it not for selection issues?
I know i need to get the tray off will be a challenge with brick wall on 2 sides and lawn behind me as concerns positioning and jacking.
When the Slave goes do you always get a leek from below?
Also need her up in the air to check the cable selectors i would guess?
Any pointers especially as to making the jobs of checking easier and faster appreciated....
I know we have the technical section but at this rate i thing the gearbox and clutch need a section all to themselves.....:D
Thanks as ever Folks....:bowdown:
