I had another look (another listen, really) at my clutch problem, and it
turns out it's not a clutch problem. The gears fully engage, and the
clutch pedal moves and feels like it should, but there's a bit of a
clunking noise when I give her some gas while in gear, and no motion in
any gear. The truck refuses to stall in any gear, as well. I'm thinking
this may be a problem in the transmission itself. Any suggestions on
where to look first when I start taking things apart this weekend?
This is on a 1954 Chevy 1/2 ton with the original 4-speed tranny, by the
way.
Thanks in advance,
