Clutch unit arm spring

[part]

Lost one spring of those three that hold together the presseure plate (triangular, fwd from throwout bearing) and the three arms themselves. Is it fatal? Any experiances on that?

I can't see it working properly with that missing!!

Strange as might be but the clutch remained to work properly, still, found out that its "one way ticket" so I´ll tear the Engine off again this weekend anyway

Can you do the V4 - (I have seen the two-stroke out and in,50 minutes) pack out and in again in less than one hour ?
A short cut - install heater hose shut-off valves, then leave the radiator protected and attached.
Use silicone grease at the rear mount and omit the retaining bolt.Use anti seize on screw thread, but not too much ! This stuff is good but messy.
And of course, use air tools.
A problem is the shift shaft pin, people over tighten this - the necessary torque is a very low figure.

Im a "slow doer", took a half day , I wasnt rushing. this was already several months ago, the saab still goes smoothly (by the way, extremely much fun on the ice track) , meanwhile, I found me another sound bodied 1975 (single throat FoMoCo) for a really good price
