Throw out bearing advice
Firstly i would like to say hello and introduce my self as its my first post! My name is Nik and i recently moved to the UK permantly from Greece. I owned a 2004 forester 2.5 XT there and now im here ive just bought a 2006 hawkeye STI.
I was in the process of changing the clutch and right after installing the fork i tested the pedal and it was very "sticky".. took fork back of inspected through hole and noticed on the TOB one of the metal tab things that wrap around the fork was bent.
Of course when tried to straighten it snapped of! anyway put the fork back on (properly) and everything seems fine. Question is what do these tab,wing,fin things do? are they important or can i run it without one of them as everything seems to be ok.
(please say its fine i seriously cant be asked to pull the clutch out again )
