+ 16v This, and what is a Fiat 850 anyway?? !!!! I would like to table a motion that this competition was deliberately ageist
Ageist quiz again this week. Similar era to the previous two offerings! What vehicle was this nasty thing fitted to? . No extra kudos if you can name the manufacturer of the clutch, cos. that's the easy bit!
You use the word nasty in describing the part, but could that adjective be related to the vehicle make perhaps? We know you do not like Fords. I will tentatively bet a half a sausage on it being from a Ford tractor of some description.
Good spot Danny! Same vehicle. It came with different size engines though! I could not find an image of the smaller Laycock unit. It was identical in design, just a smaller diameter.
Yorkie engine in the old Fords. It came in 4 and 6 cylinder guises, hence the clutch may have been deeper.
Just googled it! The `Ford York engine` is a four-cylinder Ford diesel engine used in vehicles including the Ford Transit range of vans between 1972 and 1984. ... If it was a Ford York engine, I would have been lying about the era! Anyways up. The vehicle from which this clutch came was not assembled in the UK!
PFFT! My 850 Fiat lies slap bang in the middle of the era of the Ford York engines, therefore if your rusting old clutch is of the same era as my 850 Fiat, then it stands to reason it is the same as the York engine. Feckin hell, Where is Bamber Gascoigne when you need him. Foreign and in the countryside........Unimog?
Looks like the three lever clutch cover from the old massey 35, later used in the hinomoto I believe? edit: this one? edit again: except there are too many bolt holes.
