Folks
My ex-factory red 1966 2000 had a slipping clutch - only really noticeable when at 30mph plus in fourth gear and applying some revs.
Today my good friend Duncan has popped the clutch - results below. There is a band of wear/heat friction about 5mm in from the inner edge about 5mm thick. Does anyone have any idea why this has happened - there is plenty of meat on the clutch - which explains why it doesn't slip at low speed.
This is a real head scratcher. Could it be the input shaft? would the release bearing do this?
Help!
Thanks
