That's not good. I'd start with the master cylinder as it's easier than taking the gearbox out again

@@memphis_sean8169 it dosent engage the clutch when the car is off. The release bearing engages when you press the clutch and spins due to the engine turning round. So if it whines/growls when you press the clutch pedal and the engine is running then is likely the release bearing

Could the master cylinder damage the slave cylinder? I have 2 slave cylinders failed in a short period. Both same brand, not sure what to do now. Every time I replaced all clutch parts…No symptoms before the pedal stuck on the floor… really worried will fail again It’s a Mondeo MK3 tdci

Hi I'm trying to figure out the simplest way to run a Zetec. A Friend bought a river boat that has a 1.6 crossflow he has spent quite a lot to get the engine up to date it hadn't even had the head done for unleaded and after spending on that and changing every gasket +electronic ignition then the head gasket leaked the electronic ignition gave up. Switching it to a Zetec seems the obvious way to go to me.
@mike_themechanic Ай бұрын
Have a look at my Nodiz video that you will need for the electronics. Your not going to need to change the sump for example as I assume it's just going to sit in place. You will need bike carbs for fueling though but those can be picked up fairly easily in the UK. What a great question for me to answer. Thanks for asking 😊

Some stuff that I bring on road trips are a "tire worm kit", so you don't have to ruin your tire with goo in case of a puncture. Some extra motor oil, ATF for autos, light bulbs, fuses, relays, spare wires and connectors, electrical tape, couple of nuts and bolts, duct tape, spare fan belt (I actually needed one once and didn't have one!). And it looks like you have space for a cooler box, I bring one when possible because cold drinks really help keep the spirit up especially on a hot summer day with no AC. Have a good trip!
@mike_themechanic Ай бұрын
We have looked at a cooler box but it's probably more hassle that it's worth so we've gone for a cool bag to keep things cool. Alice has only got a 34L fuel tank so we have to stop fairly regularly anyway 🫣
