[Spridgets] Clutch

 Has anyone asked if Kurt knows how to use a carbon throw out bearing clutch?  Is he rising the clutch?  Does he keep it in at the traffic light?  Those ancient carbon throw out bearings were only meant for momentary use.  Just to change gears and then immediately let out again.  These are not like a Japanese stick shift car with a roller throw out bearing.  I might be talking out of my a**, but maybe Kurt is new to British cars.Mike MacLean

  Agreed on the manufacturing sources. Also quite curious about what component failed and how did it fail.  Chuck

They’re all coming from the same places. What mfr did you get that failed and what is Bugeye 
 Guy selling? I assume  carbon throw out bearing failed?

I see BUgeye Guy sells a kit for about twice the price of Mossand I’d be happy to pay it if its worth it.   I would appreciate any advice and guidance before I waste any more money.
