  • Clutch Problems

    Message originally posted by: David Price
    The clutch on my Roadster has got to the point were it does not disengage. When I press the peddle the slave cylinder is pushing the lever until it is almost touching the side of the bell housing. I think the problem is probabily with the thrust plate rather than the clutch plate? Any idea's and were is the best place to buy a new clutch kit and what is the part number?

        I just visited my local motor factor here in Peterborough and got an exchange unit for ?35; that's the complete kit. My car is based on an Ital but I'm sure they had a kit for the Marina. The replacement had Borg and Beck stamped on it although I'm sure they did not produce the kit. Works just fine. Hope this helps.

          you could try http://marina.spares.me.uk/steve.html. Never tried him myself just a link I've picked up.

          I have seen Marina clutches somewhere, but I can't for the life of me remember where! I'll personally try my local motor-factor when I need one though.
