Shift return spring question

[Guest Nogbad]

I was thinking that myself. If the clutch was getting hot, and the plates warping and dragging, it would have the effect of making the shift very balky. The other thing to check is the pushrod. Maybe one end has welded itself and then worn shorter. In that case the lever might not have enough throw to disengage the clutch fully.

My 03 spring broke at 10,500 miles. Had the correct size boss. I'm going to replace

it every winter just to be safe. It only takes about 45 minutes.

Sometimes it so simple ...

Me and a friend also had problems shifting gears in warm ambient.

The problem was the shift linkage.

Just unfix the self-locking nuts a little bit to test ist.

High quality rod ends, eg. from www.askubal.de, solved this problem.

Shifting through the gears even in warm weather became much much better.

Interesting. Do you happen to have any reference numbers for the parts that you got?

Note: You have to use srews with a flat head, exactly like the one MG uses, there ist not much space left between the linkage and the gearbox housing.
