Puma clutch lube!

Evening chaps,

You guys are probably aware of this tip already but I greased the cutch master cylinder pivot today!

Only took half hour but an improvement noticed in clutch effort.

Little things add up to a easier drive.

If anyone struggles or fancies a go, let me know and I'll redo it with pics

Regards

I first tried a spray called tri-flow a few weeks ago then today gave about six pumps of general grease from the gun.

Borrowed a grease nipple from the other defenders trackrod for two mins.

The grease is nothing special just the same stuff i put in the props etc

Lithium then general purpose most likely. Will have to take a look shortly! The screws on the cover plate benefit from ACF50 occasionally too. Thanks for reminding me 👍🏻 No Guts, No Glory.

I cured my clutch pedal creak by greasing the spring where it hooks on the pedal. There’s supposed to be a plastic grommet on there but they disintegrate leaving metal on metal.
