More bad times..

Disaster after disaster. We realised that due to the Omega originally running a Dual Mass flywheel which is very thick, and we are using the saab one which is thin, we'd need a spacer behind the clutch slave to make up the distance. Using our previous measurements where we thought all would be fine, we realised that when clutch and gearbox are mated the thrust bearing is pushed back against the spring around the clutch slave (this should make sense if you're looking at it). The thrust bearing is always pre-loaded against the clutch fingers.

Measuring it extended and fully depressed came to 25mm ish, so we had a spacer bought from SBDEV, part ref CLT-HCS-30, lathed down to 24mm.

Fitting it all back together, we bled it through to get what felt like a firm pedal. However depressing the pedal the full travel of the 3/4" bore Land Rover Clutch Master didn'r release the wheels from the engine. Some head scratching and it seems we just aren't shifting enough fluid to fully extend the the slave. So we found a single port 1" dia brake reservoir for a Series 3 Land Rover on ebay and ordered that plus a reservoir. Waiting for delivery to see if we can finally get a break with this build!
