The Arctic winter broke briefly today here, with temps near 60 for the first time since late October. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) So, Stef came over and we put the new clutch and trans in. First I went to turn the lights on in the shop. . . nothin? So I open the giant double doors to the Great Midwest NARP Assembly Building, and I see something odd (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Boy, I don't remember that bank of floresent lights leaning up against my tool box. . . .

Hey John,
Great to see you on the board. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) Strange days around here lately. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) I think step one is tighten the clutch further. You probably hit it right on the head. I'm adjusting the V8 like it was a 1.7. I had some similar trouble with this the 1st time I put the engine back in. I thought I learned something then, but I'm probably being too conservative again here. I am also uncomfortable with the throw out riding on the p plate, and was hoping with the recent changes I could avoid that, but maybe not. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) Temps went back in the toilet here today, so I may not get to fooling with it for a few days. I will let you all know.
