Hi Jim.
Nope, no injection, it's an '86 XR2 under the bonnet so a twin choke Weber
and breakerless ignition do the job.
I've been looking at the book and I've just found that it has an ignition
relay, better check that out too.
Tomorrow I'll run it again in 'fault mode' and see if my ignition
Thanks Jim
Any idea what part number the short arm is?
I have found on with part number 88AU7515AA, are you able to identify this?

I thought i had mentioned this in a earlier reply but maybe i didn't.
There were 2 lengths of clutch release lever used that match up with the 2
cable holes in the gearbox that you've seen.
As you say, the shorter level will give you more movement on the release
bearing for the same cable
Okay all, here's a good one to work out.
Last night I went to my model aircraft club meeting. headlights were needed
on the way. When I parked, instead of shutting everything down then turning
off the engine, I turned the engine off first (I had forgotten about the
lights). I had removed the

I hear what you are saying about the Quadrant, I want to ensure no easy fixes
are left untried.
Unfortunately it is too late to make more checks as the engine/gearbox are out
again. However I can confirm he clutch pedal was going to the floor. Actually I

Hi Mark
There was something in the back of mind about this, but I don’t have access to
a later manual. Andy kindly lent me Lady Q’s manual, but it is a First Edition.
If you can have a look I would be very greatful.

Hi
This won't help, but Q2-002 has always had a low clutch bite, so I don't
know if it is a 'feature' of the early Quantums. It does not drag or creep
though. I can have a look for the build manual if you want to see if it
has any modifications?
Best regards

For reference the later build manual that came with my dad's car suggested
a mod to the pedal box to do with the pawl release that might help. Can't
be undone though, as involves cutting about 9mm off the release and
subsequent stop.
Haven't got the details at hand, but can sort at the
Okay i will still pop over. I have a couple of other ideas but need to see the
car. Lady Q was an early 2 +2 it'll be a good comparison with memory of the
build. We can see if it will work for you.

Hmm - Your thought that the thrust bearing may have been pressing (when it
shouldn't) sounds correct. The movement of the cable will only be 10% more with
the 55mm quadrant - Is it possible to check how much cable is pulled when the
clutch is fully depressed, in order to get an idea whether the

I’m becoming reasonably sure that there isn’t enough travel in the clutch pedal
to properly operate the clutch release arm. I suspect that someone previously
managed to get the lever further back meaning that the leaver was pressing on
the thrust bearing was permenantely (like
