any ideas on the best lubricant for the clutch friction plate to slide on the gearbox input shaft?
Also the best grease for the release bearing and release fork.
TIA

You should get a small sachet of grease with a decent clutch kit.
If not, it's the same stuff they use for brake slider pins. Can't remember what type it is though.

thanks... in the middle of an auto to manual conversion, so no new clutch kit... i'll try the brake slider pin lube on the input shaft and moly grease on the release bearing. cheers

If you haven't got any, a dab of copper grease should suffice, but don't go smothering it on.
