depressive cluth pedal...

> Hi,

Hi, posting in html makes it really hard to reply and wastes BW...

> I found recently a 1983 Canadian urQ

> First, the right parking brake cable stuck, I had to push the lever back through the rear wheel after I smelled burned brake pads; cable to be replaced this week.

Check first, it's more likely to be the caliper sticking... pull the
cable and see which one won't move easily. 

Third, the big one: half an hour later, clutch pedal went to the floor
and stayed there.  I was able to pull it up with my foot, only to change
gears a couple more times, then the clutch is inoperative ( always
engaged).

> Could it be the slave’s piston ? 

Most likely the slave cylinder... smaller chance of it being the
master.  replace it.

when it doesn't work, clutch will not disengage.  engine stays connected
to tranny full time.

> If so, the car would not run, the clutch doesn’t transfer power. 

not sure what this means...
