Ok from the parts list and diagrams I found on line these are the parts I'm looking for :- FRC6145 Drain plug with magnet Paddock spares FTC4056 Drain Plug also listed but does not look like the type that has a washer fitted is that correct? one of these should be the filler and one the drain...

Would you happen to have the part numbers for the Drain and filler plugs too. I'm looking online for them but there seems to be so many different types

I dont do the bay of flea and I'm looking on Amazon as I'm typing on here and the Texaco stuff is not appearing only equivalent stuff

the guy in Eurocar parts recomended the comma stu it was out of stock too or so i was told. cant move it anyway until I get a new filler plug, and also I notice the manual says to replace the drain plug washer, it did not have one, so will need to order one so to fit it I'm gonna need to empty...

and if its not the right vicosity, what happens to the baulk rings?

there was a problem with the Dextron 3 cant remember what probably out of stock too

No not upset more annoyed that I may have been misled by local car parts shops as none stocked the Texaco oil and said it would take about a week to order but the Comma stuff I got was correct stuff. Which means I may have to order the correct stuff now and do yet another oil change. Could the...

Really? did I empty the old oil out? thats your question? Well of course I did, I'm not that wet behind the ears. Several websites listed it as a direct replacement for the Texaco stuff and the car parts shop I ordered it from claims its the same stuff just a cheaper brand. I did ask the...

Thanks for the advice, heated it up a wee bit then using a pair of mole grips gripped the filler plug and with some force it finally came undone. New oil now in the gear box old filler plug in place but not tightened up, just waiting on new plug hopefully arrive Saturday morning .

Then you said "Interesting, I take it you will be changing it when you get the right stuff." when I told you what gearbox oil I brought. Neilly you seem to say things but not back up what your saying with reasons as to why your saying them, it's almost as if your taken the mick I apologise...

yup no resistance what so ever. Not tried doing anything with the bell housing as not sure whats wrong thats why asked on here. If gears are working ok why do you suggest a new slave cylinder?

yup we tried that too, kept pumping the clutch but no fluid came out, but the gears are now working?

Also why were we unable to bleed any fluid out of the bleed screw gears are now working but the bleed screw thing has me puzzled?

thanks for that we did also try a breaker bar still would not shift, heating it was the next idea. Like your tip about the resin nice one

It would not budge, put a length of pipe on the ratchet and stripped it a bit. We can still get the torx bit to go in and hold but the filler plug will not budge.

there is no bleed screw at the master cylinder and the manual only points at bleeding air out of the slave cylinder if there is air in the system

No I did not understand his idea of removing the drain plug either but its done move on as they say. T55 Torx bit is the tool to undo the filler plug but it just wont budge

We took the bleed nipple right out and checked it was not blocked there. I know nothing about bleeding the system my mate never mentioned bleeding the master but now you've said it it kinda makes sense

I did not realise you had click on the picture, things deceiving we have had a good look and cant see any leaks from the clutch system, we even took the bleed nipple right out of the slave cylinder and no fluid came out. After pumping the clutch for ages and given me a sore leg and cramp at 3am...

Update on the gear change situation. Silly me was looking at the wrong clutch fluid reservoir, the correct one had only a small amount of fluid at the bottom of it. Now with help I topped it up then my mate tried to bleed air out the system by releasing the bleed nipple on the slave cylinder...
