My friend is a modern day mechanic, not a Model A mechanic ! Is there a tutorial for him to watch or follow to adjust my clutch? Thanks in advance.

What are you trying to adjust ? Fingers or free=play ?

You friend will know how to adjust the free-play.

It has gone from no grind to grinding going into all gears.

Is the tranny full of oil?
Is the clutch arm intact, no cracks?

If it started grinding out of nowhere my bet is that the arm cracked.
