After getting stuck in fairly deep bit of muddy water my clutch feels grainy through the pedal, i have a feeling it's full of crap from th pond. i was woundering if there way to clean it out without having to pull half the clutch out? is there an inspection plate?

Any assistance would greatly appreciated cheers

I'm not one to laugh at other peoples misfortunes, but when it come to getting stuck, reckon it's fair game hahahahahahahaha........................ and I'm sure there's gonna be plenty of times when it happens to me, so feel free to wet yourself when I do..... Oh hold on you're all ready wet lmao

There is no inspection plate but there should be a small rubber bung in the bottom of the bell housing. If the bung is there remove it and drain the bell housing, make sure the drain hole is clear especially if the bung was missing.
You could also try spraying water in through the rubber boot around the clutch release lever and letting it drain out through the bottom, but I don't think it will achieve much.

Good stuff mate - glad it's sorted, but a bigger lift and bigger tyres will only make you a bigger goose next time you get stuck!! LMFAO!!! Love it!!! One of the highlights of the weekend - well done champion.

Have a safe trip and looking forward to the next meetup!!

You wont get much of a reply from him mate. He does not get on very often. As for his clutch, it is still going hard and strong.
