:D :D :D

Got the clutch flexi fitted, and finally bled up (took the slave cylinder off to do bleed it, using easybleed)

However there still feels like theres some air in the system, its not 100% and sometimes needs a pump. Going to run her to work today, and maybe up to the Griifins Head classic meet at Papplewick, then try again tomorrow

:D

Hrrm, will keep an eye on it. at the moment I'm pretty sure there is definitely some air in the system, which I just can't rid of :roll:

Going to use her today & then try bleeding with my Dad's help tomorrow evening :)

If that doesn't help trying to source a genuine lucas master cylinder for sensible money & will renew ALL the pipe!

As she's sitting at work:
(You have to walk past her to get into the building :D )

although much as i hate the colour she is currently, i do almost feel sympathetic to it, i mean, it must be a hard life being That shade!

Well it was suggested, so maybe it will? I mean it cant really be any other colour can it?
