First drive in months and the gearbox broke 🙄 - K series MG Midget

[@MarksWheels]

Turns out it wasn't the gearbox! Check out where the noise was coming from here kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZDKf6ZsprF6rLs

Hope you get the gearbox sorted soon; sounded pretty bad and I'll bet it sounds worse in person than it sounds on the video. It was an Alfa GTV 6 by the look of it; some nice cars driving about what with the waving MGB too. That open road looks fun if you are not suck behind slow KAs or nursing a sick car back home.

Thanks for watching. Can't wait to get it sorted and get back out again

[@NatsWorkshop]

Oh no bro you’ll fix it in no time

[@MarksWheels]

Might be a few weeks. You'll see when the video goes live

Hi mate I know your midget is a K series but I don’t suppose you know anything about the original 1500 gear box when I go into first and lift the clutch the gear stick slips back into neutral any ideas (thanks for your time)

[@MarksWheels]

How is the clutch feel in other gears? Might also be worth dropping the oil to see how metallic it is. Would be an indicator of bearing wear

@@MarksWheels I’ll have a look tomorrow thanks

@@MarksWheels the clutch feels fine the car isn’t on the road yet so I’m not sure if it happened in other gears yet it’s happened twice in 1st gear I just hope it’s not a gear box rebuild!
