My brother owns a 1969 series IIa lightweight, over the past year or so we've replaced the distributor cap and head gasket + radiator.
Hector(yes we named it) started 'slipping' when we tried starting it about 2months ago, but always started on 2nd or 3rd try without any slipping(grinding / whurring noise)
Now, suddenly, it wont even try and engage. Just spins/ whurrs.
We are both young and relatively dumb regarding mechanics.
I tried...tried....hitting it with a hammer, but its hard to get a good swing
No difference.
We're going to try and take it out and disassemble / clean / reinstall.
Any tips VERY welcome.
We plan to have a a good go at it on Fri / sat / sun.
