Your clutch release bearing has managed a few thousand miles under my size ten left foot, Alan.

Thanks both. In the end, I released the backplate and, once it could flop around a bit, the cylinder came out. These new cylinders are really lumpy and poorly finished, with a sand grain texture all over, and proud seams. No wonder it wouldn't come out too easily. Once I had the new one in, it didn't slide as you'd hope it would, so I've had it out again, and been trying to finish it decently. Fi...
