Many thanks for those pictures, and for everyone’s advice, much appreciated. I took the bell housing off the clutch, intending to clean the friction surfaces with brake cleaner. But I can’t really see what’s going on inside the cover, can’t see any interface to be cleaned (with or without...

Got the clutch pan off today. Lots of black dust in there, I haven't cleaned off the disk yet, but I suspect there's a new clutch in my future.. Where can I buy the parts? Does anyone offer a kit? Thanks!

Phil and Mullaney, Thanks for the excellent advice, much appreciated. I'll try to get a look at the clutch and clean it off.

Oh.. that's very helpful, THANK you!

Hi All, I’m a newbie here, proud owner of a 1952 M37 bought from a fire department. Questions about engine oil: 1. Most who’ve posted here are using 15W-40. When I look up that oil, it’s always referred to as for DIESEL. Am I missing something? 2. For those using Rotella, does that mean...
