You need to fix the outside clutch adjustment problem first.

I don't think your clutch juddering is caused by incorrect clutch adjustment, more likely a warped disc, pressure plate, flywheel or main seal oil leak or remnants of.

Your car is back together now so my question is irrelevant.

The spring is fitted from the factory but not at the angle you have it, it needs to be attached to the bleed nipple on the slave cylinder with a small tab to be correct.

Now look at the PDF on clutch adjustment and see where your problem is.

Fully covered in the Haynes PDF or manual. I asked you a question which you chose not to answer. I don't care what is going on inside the cover what i see a problem with is on the outside, keep on driving it you will find out eventually.

You are the worst for answering any questions when people tried to and were willing to help you solve your problems, probably one of the MANY reasons people are not getting involved in your threads.

Any rebuttle for Jeg yet ????????

Isn't Dimitris Greek (or maybe he just lives in Greece).

If you look at the PDF you have you will or should notice there are a couple of things wrong with your recent clutch repair (and i use that word loosely). One may leave you stranded the other maybe not but you can figure that out i am sure.

BTW the Haynes BOL was referenced to you so you could learn about Mini's, you don't need it every day once you know your way around one which you obviously do not.

No reply for John / Jeg's post i guess, just as i figured.

Start by ensuring you have a functioning computer with internet access (and a valid IP as that seems to be essential based on recent covnersations)

Navigate to google.

Copy & paste the number into the search field.

Press the enter / return button.

Scroll through the results; add additional info like "tony" or "vanessa" as appropriate...

What else are you unable to do today? Perhaps I can show you how to boil an egg, put air in your tires, or operate a dishwasher? Sadly there isn't a haynes manual for idiots... Which reminds me, do you have a mini-specific one yet???

It's been fun, but this place is done. I have no hatred, and appreciate the good times. But this place now belongs to Tony and his pink mini.

This whole thing has gotten rather silly; in all seriousness, Robster, I never actually posted a picture of you on this forum.  I posted a picture of Luke and a picture of Tony.  But in refering to the original thread; azbob Bob, did you know that Tony is selling a scooter similar to yours?  It's a small world, isn't it?

Here's what happened, but it gets a bit confusing, m'kay? 

Bob (azbob) posted a picture of a scooter sitting on a trailer.  It was pure coincidence that the silver Toyota tow vehicle has the same wheels as the silver vehicle that I saw in Pacific Luke's  (titled: mini sex maniac, that's me lol - YouTube.mp4 video) as seen here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9ci2UBL6Og.  I pointed this out in the image containing the orange arrow.  I don't know why Robster always posts links to Pacific Luke's videos, but who's to question who one 'follows' online...

Then, I found a picture of Luke on the scooter forum.  I don't know if it's Pacific Luke, so I just call him 'Luke'.  Oh yes, here it is: //scooterdoc.proboards.com/thread/10321/post-pic-scooter .  Reminds me of that movie with the lactose intollerant girl who meets the French guy.  I think it was Meg Ryan; she had a cool way of saying 'Luc'; her way of pronouncing 'Luc' was very charming.  He wanted to start a vineyard, but I won't tell you how it goes and spoil the film.  When I saw it, I chuckled several times.  Here it is, I've added an orange arrow and labelled it 'Luke'.

I did a quick Google Image search for a scooter and found that Tony was selling one in Killeen Texas:  //www.bikerplaza.com/cls-Yamaha-Morphous-2007-VanessaTony.html .  He's the guy sitting on a scooter.  Believe you me, I couldn't believe it myself.  Like, serious OMG!  These guys could be twins, like, you know how they say everyone has a double somewhere in the world, well, Luke should seriously call Tony so that they can meet.  His phone number is in the advertisment.  It's uncanny, the resemblance between these two guys.

Imagine my surprise to find that Pacific Luke has a mini just like yours, azbob has a silver Toyota that looks just like acific Luke's, and that Tony and Luke, who look like they could be twins are both photographed sitting on a Morphous.  Uncanny.

You know what though?  I was actually happy for you when azbob posted.  It showed some sort of willingness to participate on a more open and transparent level.  I immediately thought of you too, as you're both in Yuma.  You could be working on your minis together, maybe start your own local club.  And then you spoil it all by accusing him of trying to drain your bank account or some such nonsence after you posted pictures of his radio controlled toys.

One to ponder: I always wondered, what would happen if a photograph was taken Sybil (Shirley Ardell Mason); would multiple images appear?

Nice work John, bet you don't get a reply on any of it though that is the way he operates when cornered with the truth.

If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.
