New engine arrive about 2 weeks ago and is tucked up nicely in the garage, the old zook is running and winch working, logs for the stove have been got and so it is ME time.
First order of the day is to move the 101 from it's parking place to the front of the garage to allow the old engine and box to be lifted out and the new one to be fitted.
Well it starts and runs like it is on 7 cyclinder that's a start. Clutch in... Set Hi/LO to low select 1st.... CRUNCH try again, pump clutch CRUNCH, looks like clutch or clutch cylinder has a leak. Oh well into first ,jolt, and off we go......
Trying to stop and reverse, down a sligth hill, into a parking space in a 101 with no powersteering and no clutch nearly impossible, but somehow got it roughly where I want it and broke the Gearstick linkage in the proccess.
Decide that tommorw I would use the old zook (Suzuki SJ) & winch to move it further over to give me more room to work.
