Hello,
After finally getting my suspension back together, I am now having a
cluch problem.
Backround: Car has been on stands for about 8 months. Before that, 2
or 3 times, the clutch pedal would stick partly in the "down/in"
position.
Now: On my way back from the allignment, it started sticking every
time. I can lift the pedal, but when I press back down on it, there is
no resistance until it reaches where it was before I lifted it. Also,
the clutch is not disengaging all the way. In fact, to get into reverse
I had to shut it off, engage reverse, and then start. The car would
creep backward slightly even with the clutch all the way down.
I was planning on installing a new clutch in the spring, partly because
I think my rear main seal is leeking air. I REALLY don't want to drop
the tranny untill at least january (would be a real problem). Can I
revive it? I plan on flushing the fluid tonight (all I have to do is
put on my pressure bleeder and open the bleeder on the slave, right?).
Any other suggestions/hints/etc?
Thanks alot,
Clutchless in North Dakota,
Erik
