So new clutch fitted.I haven't road tested yet as the mini is not taxed. All gears feel fine but when the clutch pedal is pressed all gears can feel a bit notchy. It will go into each gear though.
I haven't bled the slave cylinder since fitting the new clutch , waiting for my daughter to assist me!
Any thoughts...?

why do you need to bleed the clutch?

 

what clutch? exactly the same as the old one? you have rested the appropriate settings?

verto clutch. Just thought to bleed it to rule out air in the system.
It's a brand new clutch kit.
When the engine is running and clutch is pressed the gear changes sometimes feel notchy.With ignition off the gears feel fine

If it worked before then you have no reason to bleed it as you have not opened it.

Set the stop nuts to 6.5mm?

yes I've set the stop at 6.5mm
Probably need to properly test drive it first?
