thanks for the help, to clean the clutch out do I just need to remove a cover plate and get an airline in or should I disassemble it and clean it with some magic solution ?

Can you reccomend what i should be buying for a set of ST4S alloy plates and where from ?

clutchless up gear changes are my thing anyway and I never slip the clutch and as I said earlier at any opportunity I put it in neutral to save my hand from aching, all of which makes the whole fiasco worse.

again thanks for the help
