I brought 2 so ill measure the other new one. And post it up. Might be a bit hard being so flexable, but ill give it a go.

The Clutch was pretty good no hot spots or anything, but I replaced the siggot bearing while I was in there.

I noticed there is also another o ring on the back of the flywheel, didnt touch it as I didnt have a replacement for it but I just remembered I have another fly wheel so ill measure the old one of that and give the diementions for both.

Sounds good.
When I do my RMS, soon I hope, it would be nice to have everything on hand. it is leaking about 1 ltr for every tank of fuel at the moment.
As soon as it looks like a week or so of warm weather here it will be time to start. what did you do about fly wheel bolts?

Did it let go in the usual place (quick connectors)?

So far the mechanic has told me is it's underneath the thermal fan and the line is busted. Lost all the transmission fluid. Hopefully it's only that otherwise I'll be stuck up here for awhile.

Sounds like quick connectors they are just under the thermal fan. Only about 1-1.5hrs to fix. Hopefully they don't put a new line on them or the problem will happen again later down the track. The go is to cut them and use some flared pipe with hose clamps.
