Clutch release bearing screaming like a fox on heat, gives up the ghost with Mrs Ozziedog on a visit to one of her darkside outings :shock: Drive home with no clutch, no big deal 
Thought it was the clutch cable originally, so no big deal Drop the engine and fit new bearing and throw a new clutch in for good measure, no big deal While the engine is out, have a look at the oil leaks, no big deal Might as well pop the heads off and have a look, no big deal Have a bit of an issue with the head gaskets , yes I got head gaskets and can`t get new ones, so check deck height and lap em in, no big deal Sort the valves and guides are ok and pop in some stem seals, no big deal Put the engine back together but forgot to put the deflector tin ware in between the barrells and the pushrod tubes, can`t squeeze em in so pull it all apart and do it again, Oh bugger ! Got a couple of bit`s of tinware missing at the rear, Oh bugger, but I can fit them later, Ahhhhh Sort out the bodged up throttle through the tin ware while it`s out, might as well, no big deal, Wrestle the engine back in and replace all the missing bolts and hook it all up, This is good Take off the zorst and refit it cause it`s hitting the support bar, I love this bus really Throttle dosen`t want to come through far enough, Oh shit Slip it out , fiddle about, and pop it back in, Won`t be long now Sort the throttle, fit the engine, fit the tinware, find all the bolts that are missing, fit the bumper, wire it up, sort the fuel pipes, and pop the battery on charge over night, Now we`re getting somewhere Turn the key, wuuuh wuuh wuuh, try again wuuh wuuh wuuh, and again and again, Oh well it`s gonna be tight cause I honed the bores Have I got a spark at the leads, NO ! better have another look at the wires, oh yea that one goes to the coil and that one goes to the oil sender, Charge the battery again. Jump in and fire it up and he starts first time!! Get the thing off the jacks, lower him carefully get all the axle stands outand drop him down, can`t get the trolley jack out, NO BIG DEAL! Jack him up again and set him down on his wheels onto some blocks, You beauty Open the garage door Adjust the mirrors Start him up Grab the gearstick Push in the clutch, :evil: :evil: The clutch peddle goes straight to the floor, :evil: :evil: :evil:
