    It’s a vent. Also if you put too much fluid in it will shoot out the hole.

    I'm a big fan of Lanlin based coatings but the chassis does need to be clean and as much as possible rust free (rust treated) first and then its a yearly thing to keep on top of it. Lanoguard is the original and there are plenty of other makes...

    If it worked right before then just change like for like in the new socket. Or you could trace the wires back to the origin ( probably 1 of the back light areas) J

    By the time they got to the TD5 they went back to a very chunky cast jobbie with replaceable inserts where the centre pivot and the slave cylinder pushrod go. I've had clutch problems but never the clutch fork.
