[DML] Re: Interesting Clutch Problem

["DMC Joe" <DMCJOE@xxxx>]

Marc & Lee,
Shortly after the DeLorean hit the streets the infamous "plastic clutch
line" problems started popping up all over the country. In an effort to
correct the problem an adjustable clutch pedal link was manufactured and
supplied to dealers for replacement. (Service Bulletin No. ST-07-9/82). The
problem was that in order to compensate for the loss of pedal action the
link could be easily over adjusted this caused the master cylinder plunger
to travel too far in the bore causing premature failure of the master
cylinder. The adjustable link should only be considered as temporary,
replacing the factory plastic line with the stainless braided is the only
way to go.
