So while I'm waiting for my new radiator and wanting to follow up on my last thread with results I've run into another issue on my 1972 mini 1000 (pre verto).
My cluch release bearing was very noisy and I was having trouble shifting into gears, suddenly I lost all feedback on my clutch pedal and it shifted into gear no more.
I knew what had to be done.
So my new clutch release bearing came in the mail and after fitting it I was dissapointed to see that even though my bearing clutch didn't squeel anymore when I pressed the pedal in I'm still getting no feedback and I can't shift into gear.
The plunger on the clutch cover makes contact, but I don't really see it moving when I press the pedal, I'm not seeing much movement from my clutch lever arm.
The arm was pretty worn so I've already ordered a new one. Could my slave cilynder not be pushing the arm hard enough? I opened the bleed valve witch the pedal pushed and I didn't get any air just liquid.
tl;dr:
Syntoms: Clutch bearing noise, difficulty shifting into gear, suddenly no clutch pedal resistance or feedback
What I did: Replaced bearing, ordered new lever arm
What changed: no more noise
Here's a video to further backup my explanation
