Although i have yet to take the Herald out for a proper test drive, everything seems to be in order, after removing the old gearbox and putting the new one in, then removing the new gearbox and replacing the old clutch with a new clutch, then putting the new gearbox back in, only to find that the clutch is not properly alligned, and so removing the gearbox once again, re-positioning the clutch (by this time we were ready for a drink) and putting in the new gearbox for one final time.
The first test drive on the forecourt yesterday resulted in alot of crunching when selecting reverse gear, and after a some help from my uncle, an ex mechanic, who stated the obvious to us amateurs, we decided that the slave cylinder needed a slight extension. This morning i tested the Herald after accounting for the lack of reach and she ran like a dream... perhaps later i'll take her for a proper spin!
