Thanks gents for your sugestions, i got right under the car on saturday
and
only then did i notice one of the bushes on the gearbox steady was round
the
wrong way and the ment the clamp that holds it was round the wrong way so
it
was not holding it much at all there i also looked at the slave cylinder
that had looked perfect when i looked before but i found the 2 bolts were
not even finger tight alowing it to move as it was used, since talking
the
car on a couple years ago i have found loads of lose stuff i have since
sepnt alot of time going round check everything!! i have only had time to
go
round the block in it the clutch does seam smoother but there is still a
bit
of noise when i press the pedal and relese it but it all seams more
steady
when pulling away i think if it can get round to next spring i will whip
the
clutch out and have the flywheel checked as per your susgestions cause i
work outside the weather is abit ruff now to start doing that.
Thanks again guys I will let you know the outcome.

Sounds like a case of finger-tight restoration to me!


Handy tip coming up . . .

If you are not going to tighten something properly straight away, never ever
leave it finger-tight, always leave it obviously loose. Otherwise you or
somebody else will assume it has been properly tightened when it hasn't.
