    Hi Mike

    Thank you fit your kind response and for all So start owners I’m sure a description of your gearbox fault and how you rectified it would be invaluable

    Regards

    Hi Peter
    I’m a little confused as both the workshop manual and the torque settings page on this forum say the differential bevel nut should be tightened to 140-150 1lb foot.
    With kind regards
    Malcolm

    Hi Peter
    Sorry to take so long to answer!
    I have dressed the thread this morning and after getting a couple of spare axle nuts from the ever-helpful Graham Potts, all is well.
    Next job now is to tackle the pinion seal!!!!

    Hi Peter
    I cleaned around the breather and used a bit of penetrating oil. The breather did not want to shift with a screwdriver, but a gentle twist with mole grips and the breather loosened with no problems. Hub seals all changed, but unfortunately one slightly damaged thread on the axle tube. Hope to try to dress the same with a needle file (fingers crossed). The ever helpful Austin Counties club supplied me with a couple of used nuts.
