G'day Martin,
Hopefully you have got away with it and avoided a seized limiter, but the
MoT test won't tell you! As per my earlier email, I suggest that if a stored
limiter is going to seize, it will naturally do this in its relaxed
(non-activated & non-limiting) position, in which you get the full measure
of rear braking, and the roller test will always be passed with flying
colours. You won't know if it's stuck until you brake in anger at some speed
out on the road...

Re stuck clutches, that's a great idea of yours for releasing them. I've
used other methods but yours sounds pretty good.

Best rgds,
G

As part of our annual MOT test they test the braking effort by sitting the
car on powered rollers and the rear limiter works perfectly despite the fact
the car it came off has been off the road for over ten years.

As for my seized clutch on the Sprint. Last time I had this problem, when I
was restoring my now roadworthy Ti. I jacked up one front wheel kept the
clutch pedal depressed with some wooden blocks. Put it in gear and put a
large 1" socket on the hub nut and with the help of a scaffolding tube ,
got enough leverage to turn the hub and the clutch freed itself with a
bang...
