After eight years and 120k of 4Runner ownership I now have a 98 Collie 3.o manual. The first two years of it's life it did 82k and then the last owner did 28k in 17 years. It has never had a tow bar and the engine sounds and runs very well. My problem is when setting off, when the clutch bites if I let it off quickly there is a bit of a thud and this continues in all gears, certainly lesser when getting into higher gears but presume there is less torque higher up. If I release the clutch slowly and gently it is fine. No noise on acceleration or deceleration. No problem on gear selection or slippage and the clutch travel is in the middle of the pedal. The local garage says let it develop but would like any ideas from the Cruiser Club Experts.
