Subject: Re: Advice needed
Thank you - I will try those people for the radiator. I've sent out requests to two companies for quotes & am waiting to hear back.
That advice is good for all clutches I think! I am a coach operator, and the vehicles I run have a 10 litre Cummins diesel at the back. They are renowned for eating clutches - in fact the last one I bought had needed a new clutch every six months till I bought it. I got fifteen years and 300,000 miles out of that clutch, and then it wasn't worn out - the only reason I had to replace it was that the spigot bearing (a ball race) had run dry and was starting to drag. The linings would have been good for half a million I reckon.
I must say I was surprised to find the centre plate in my Lagonda in such good condition, although the linings were worn, but all nice & even.
PS Google never found these radiator people, so thanks!
