Post by caveman Sun Jun 12, 2011 9:25 am

Mrs Cavey was rushed to hospital last Thursday with suspected liver failure, doctors reckon it's either her meds or a blocked bile whatsit. She turned all yellow'ish and was Boab & Hugh'ing all over the shop - very fecking scary it was and I'm not easily scared with a bit of choking boak.

Anyway, apart from the above, the biggest problem I've got is I have no fucking vehicle to transport my fat arsed person to visit her as and when I'd like. Our lad takes me in after he's finished work and I'm very grateful for that, but it means I can only visit late evening which isn't enough for me - besides after driving for 5000 years, I really hate being a passenger.

I'm waffling I know, but although I've still got our wee series III Landy which is fecked at the moment, I'm thinking of either getting a second-hand 'banger' or getting the Landy repaired and back on the road just to be independent - a big thing for us old farts you know.

The banger option sounds good (and easier) as I'd have to get down and dirty again with the Landy, personally I'd love to repair the wee Landy - but my body's fecked on account of too many deep fried Mars bars, too much bevvy and way too much sitting on my fat arse.

Bugger it! I'm going to try and repair the bastard or die in the fucking attempt. My Anne would be proud of me if I managed it.

Ta Mate, but she'd hate you for calling her "Annie" Mad It rhymes with fanny and that's deadly in Scroteland! Razz

"Oh Annie you've got a smelly fanny" was one she heard too often as a lass - they were right, it smelt lovely when I got in aboot it...Hmmm kippers, I fecking love kippers. Smile

It's fucked!

Sorry Cheesy, that was very juvenile of me. It's the clutch, it won't disengage which points to hauling the gearbox backwards with all the shite that that entails... Sad

A cheap shitter costs about £700 up here min. I ain't got that much dosh Daryl cos the government bastards are taking all Anne's benefit away to pay for her care whilst I still look after her 24 hours a day.

Fucking, cunting bastards. Twisted Evil

Re the clutch. Has it been standing for a while? If so it could just be rusted together.
If not, look at the clutch master cylinder, has it got fluid? if yes there is a little box thingy, take the lid off and you see a rod with some adjustment take all free play up and try again.
If it hasnt fixed it let us know.

I've tried all that Bill, master and slave cylinder are working fine - I can start the bugger up in any gear without touching the clutch pedal and there's not a sausage of movement in either the Landy or the drivetrain....I'm definitely thinking summat's fecked in the bellhousing either clutch or release bearing.

Oh, it isnt frozen then it is loose? If so then it will be either the pressure plate fubar or the centre plate centre ripped out.

Oh well, looks like a fucked clutch thingy, I'm so glad all the floor panels/seat base fixings are stainless steel cos that'll save a bit of fannying about.

All I need now is the bastarding rain to stop for a few days.
