<p>Hi all, Good to hear from you folks! Enjoyed the videos Linda!
Rick is correct but no, I'm not done with it yet. Had to sort out
a bit of play in the MGA left front wheel. I removed the hub but
not the bearings, reinstalled and tightened it down past the
castellated slot and still had had some play. Grabbing the wheel
at the top doesn't give me clunking sound but shaking it with
hands at 9 and 3 positions gives me the slight play. I'm starting
to suspect inner tie rod at the rack. It's not that bad so will
keep an eye on it. Would not have noticed it if I hadn't played
with it to start with. So, NOW on to the Sprite clutch slave
remote bleeder. Thanks Rick; I'm an old guy and cellophane came
from somewhere in my brain (lucky anything gets out of there!)
Plastic baggie it is. Thanks for confirming.</p>

<div>Yes, the cap has to be vented for normal use. But Dave
wanted to know if a piece of plastic bag or similar (not
cellophane) under the cap would keep the master from
draining while he replaced the line on his slave. Yes, it
will work Dave. But you're probably all done by now. :-)</div>

<div>I thought the cap needed the hole open to

folks,<br>
<br>
Hope all is well with list members, that's you too
Mark! Assume people <br>
have been getting a lot of work done on their cars
during this period of <br>
"house arrest". I'm finally getting around to
installing a remote <br>
clutch bleeder in the Bugeye. Too many joints
creaking and complaining <br>
contorting myself into the footwell. Does the
cellophane under the M/C <br>
screw top work to prevent all the fluid draining
out of the M/C? I <br>
forgot the slave is supplied by a hard line.<br>
<br>
Also, I pause today to remember our friend and
mentor, Frank. Still have <br>
(always will) the WWFD sticker on my car and tool
box. By extension we <br>
remember Paul A.; another mentor and guru in his
own right. Miss you <br>
guys. You taught us well.<br>
<br>
Stay safe, stay home and work on your cars and the
endless Honey Do list <br>
our wives keep dreaming up. Be well friends.<br>
