Now then lads... Finally finished renewing the clutch master and slave cylinders and bled the system. I'm not sure I've got all the air out and will re bleed but there's enough pedal feel to pull away in 1st fine.

Then, when changing up to 2nd, the car kangaroos a couple of times and then I lose all drive. Does this sound like its related to the clutch to you? Or is it more likely that while laid up, I've developed another, maybe carb related issue?

What do you reckon? Cheers, Nick

What happens if you pull off in second or third? Or get pushed started in second or third? :?

I don't know. I'll try it (well, I'll try it in 2nd - a 316 carb engine won't pull away in 3rd at any time :D ). What are you thinking mate?
