Vital Spark:
Thanks for that folks - stripped out clutch today and met with rusty/seized
 bearing on clutch rod end plus plates in a gooey mess of rust and oil.
Looks like it must have been condensation as drained oil is clean - possibly been changed by previous owner after rusting had occurred.
Whatever - have cleaned plates etc and awaiting new bearing before reassembly.
Thanks again,
Richard.

Trigger:
When fitting new plates, always soak in oil for 24 hours to give them some sort of chance  ;)

paul G:
I also had a great tip which improved mine.
On the metal plates they have a rounded side on the outer edge and a sharp side where they have been stamped out.
ALLWAYS make sure they are the same way around on all the plates, I do mine inwards but was told it doesn't make that mush difference if they are in or out. :)
