jad Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hello everyone I am currently rebuilding my car. When i took it to pieces I had some people round to help me Which was nice cos it was completely in pieces by the end of day 1. However one of them too the clutch slave cylinder out with push rod and therefore the clip off..... The engine and gearbox are on the new chassis with bulkhead, rear tub floors in drivers side wing on etc My problem is i cannot for the life of me get the push rod clip back in with the push rod! since i can fit only fit one of me fingers in with it. By any chance has some one got a tip for putting this back in without separating the engine and gearbox? I have broken the original clip that came out, then ordered 4 more because i don't fancy my chances..... Is there a trick to it or do i have to take the engine out? cheers Jad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 It's worth doing a search on this, I believe Fridgefreezer has posted on using a bit of tube over the pushrod, to hold the clip in position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
