Today I changed my clutch and gearbox oil, clutch is now much lighter now and biting point is a lot lower and no more clutch slip, gear changes are now much smoother, what I thought was a blowing drivers side exhaust manifold gasket has turned out to be the downpipe gasket as after changing that the blowing has stopped.  :) :y
