Evening ladies and gents

Viewed a nice jimny for sale today but the dipstick had snapped off in the block and not enough showing to pull it out. Any ideas how to resolve and what it might cost?

Also the clutch was graunchy and heavy- looks like it needs a new one. Any idea what I should pay for a new one fitted?

Take the rocker cover off and the stick will either come out with it or show enough for you to grab, £200 ish should see you a clutch fitted

Gold Jimny the best colour (sold) :(

Big red Jimny 32" tyres, arbs, cage 5:1 transfer etc. (Sold)

Grey pick up Jimny
Turbo m13a, arbs, floating rear shafts, disc conversion rear, vented front conversion. 245 70 16. Winch, 3" lift, 4:16 trans hd shafts and CVS

Oh and a knackered clutch should explain a fairly stiff gear change shouldn't it?

If the pedal is grauchy and stiff, it probably needs a new clutch cable: about £100 supplied & fitted.

(IIRR the cable is about £70 from Suzuki, no-one does a cheap £20 replacement)

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)
