HELP! The clutch in my Spitfire has stuck disengaged!? The pedal felt a
little odd before it happened - like extra resistance - then no-go. The
pedal swings back and forth freely. With the cap off the reservoir, I
noticed that it was down a bit - maybe 3/8 inch. I topped it up and worked
the pushrod back and forth a bunch of times and it engaged. I managed to
drive it home, the clutch felt fine for a while but as I was pulling into
my driveway it did it again. What is the most likely cause of this? Master
cylinder or slave or something in the clutch release mechanism binding? I
hope it is the Master as I have a spare! Guidance before I tear things
apart would be much appreciated.
