Hi

 

Is it worth while taking the clutch plates apart and giving them a good sanding with 60 grit paper before re installing the engine? 

 

Thanks

I would try them "as is" first but if you do rough them up, consider that original plates will probably contain asbestos so do it wet.

Thanks Wristpin.

 

And good advice on Asbestos linings!!!
