    Gear Shift Rattle

    My gear shift rattles when driving unless I keep my hand on it. Is there a quick fix for this? I think in my old Austin Healey days, I just used to put some more grease on it, but that was 35 years ago and my memorey ain't what it used to be. Perhaps i replace the spring, but I just can't...

    Clutch Slave cylinder problems

    I am no expert on Alpine mods for sure, but I did quite a few on Austin Healeys and MG's. If you manually try to move the clutch arm, is there any play before it gets too tight to move by hand?
