Sorry, I was replying to Huskymaniacs complaint of a whining noise.
Thanks! The noise is noticeable but not loud. Most people don't notice it until I point it out. Should I let it go for now or dive in and replace it?
What kind of car are we talking about here? You can probably live with it for a while you would never want to ignore camshaft bearing noises or internal engine bearing noises....but a clutch throwout bearing is not the end of the world.
Unless ton ruptures then your leak hydraulic fluid all over and be stranded on the side of the road. Probably ruin the clutch plates too. The original Vallejo throwout bearings tend to rupture. Real crappy bit. Sent using FerrariChat.com mobile app

Hi folks, it's time for me to regrease. Does anyone have a source for orings like the kits that Andrew from MD would put together? Thanks.
Found something similar here in Europe, that has same spec as Klüber 1301 (Price is similar, but OKS is available in 500g package for 112€): https://www.oks-germany.com/en/products/oks-1140-extreme-temperature-silicone-grease/
Nice. I always felt that it was way overkill people thinking that they "had"to use kluber. I used the super lube grease and it is working absolutely perfectly and a fraction of the cost. In fact it's such an excellent lube I'm using it on everything ...the boat the trailer and other applications around the house. For what it's worth repacking the clutch did get rid of the clunky sound on a hot start but it did not help the hot start problem at all whatsoever. It turns out I had the common problem of massive pressure build up in the fuel tank which was causing the engine to flood while sitting. I now keep the fuel cap loose as suggested by another member and I've not had a problem since!
