Yep, the very usefully parts diagram looks like a push type ( normal old school ) operation, different to a modern ( modern, so it's gunna be crap then ) pull type.
WOW, GOT THAT WRONG the above parts diagram is for a PULL type clutch as the cable shaft has hooks. MY BAD
Our 306 estate hdi ( year 2000 but lots of stuff has stickers with early-ish 1999 dates ) phase3 ? Definitely has a push type clutch.
When I removed the hubs for a job, the clamp bolts to the strut where undone, releasing fluid sprayed and sprayed into/around the clamping joint area on the strut. I gently taped around the clamping area and resprayed until I could see penetrant disappear down the gap.
Then that bit was easy to seperate/remove strut.
I also went to the iron mongers and got some largish diameter threaded rod, nuts and washers to make some dummy CV joints to " clamp" the6 front wheel bearings.
At some point I have to remove engine/gearbox for turbo work, manifolds cleaning and clutch, but need to get able to have car front wheels back on the deck and roll car backwards a bit, hence dummy CV joints/front wheel bearing clamps, so bearing don't collapse...
I love this car but it's involved working on it, that's part of the love for it probably.?
