No, Bob, I don't know what chewed it up so badly - and thats what worries me a bit. No sign of any loose debris, bits of metal or anything in there - just lots of bad scuffing of the friction material on the pressure plate side and lots of thick oily guck and transferred friction material on the pressure plate which presumably caused it to stick? The pressure plate cleaned up nicely. The pilot bearing looked fine, too. Theres a little bit of play in the throwout bearing so I'll get a new one of those from Macs or Dennis Carpenter (cheaper). Theres also a tiny bit of play in the main (pilot) shaft but I can't see changing that.
I can't wait to get it all back together hopefully before the cold sets in - I have to fix up my jeep tfirst ready for the OMVA fall show - not to mention all the cottage jobs that she who shall be obeyed has lined up. My beach buggy will outrun your beach buggy any day - don't forget I have little tiny wheels - good for acceleration!!!
Cheers
David
