After forever
Pulled my finger out and removed box, reset clutch fork and put it all back together. Seven hours from start to finish.I pulled the box out and saw that the wire from the coil to the ignition module had been destroyed, hence the no start. Fixed that and it started.
Whilst the box was out I had another look at the clutch and adjusted the pivot ball so that the fork was square to the input shaft at the start of the pedal travel. Took it for a drive and pretty quickly realised that I fucked it up. There was a rattle from inside the bellhousing that only went away when the clutch pedal was pressed halfway so I'm gathering that's the TO bearing.
The clutch take up point was pretty high which I wasn't happy with. Other than that, it went fine, changed gears fine.
Spoke to Mal Wood and he tells me that the clutch fork needs to be square to the input shaft at half pedal travel. That would put the clutch take up point closer to the floor which makes sense.
Now just got to find the enthusiasm to pull it all apart again!
Pretty tricky trying to judge the position of the clutch fork at half pedal but I think I got it close. Factory pivot ball height spec is 105 mm, mine ended up at 103 mm. The clutch still bites high up in the pedal if I adjust the cable so that the clutch pedal is level with the brake. If I back it off a bit the take up point is a lot better, just that the clutch pedal now sits below the brake. Trying to decide whether that bothers me.
