RE: [DML] Clutch Problem

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim,
As the others have said about the clutch hydraulics', my question is how
many miles are on the car and do you know if the clutch has ever been
changed. Also, there is a small seal in the clutch master cylinder that if
it isn't sealing properly will allow fluid to go back into the reservoir
when you step on the pedal. You can see the clutch seals for the master and
slave on the site.

DMLer's

I went to take my D out for a nice little drive and as soon as I sat down
and felt the pedals, I knew something was wrong.  The clutch felt extremely
loose.  I still have the original stiff clutch.  When I press on the pedal
it feels like a normal loose clutch, found in today's cars, for about 75% of
the way.  The remaining quarter of the way, it feels like it should.  It
won't go into gear all the time, but will sometimes.

Could this just be the cable?  Any and all ideas welcome.

Jim
