Triumph Owner,
I have recently purchased a 73 TR-6. When I got it home I stared it up.
Everything seemed smooth except the clutch pedal. The pedal has NO
resistance when pushed in. The former owner drove the car to his home
parked it and let it sit for 6 months. The clutch worked fine when he
parked it. (this person is a good friend and has no reason to mislead me) I
have read many of the articles about clutch problems on this car, but I am
still a little confused. I have never felt what a operable hydraulic clutch
pedel is supposed to feel like. So I have two questions I hope you can
offer some insight on.
1. When the car is OFF is there supposed to be resistance on the clutch
pedal? Or is it like hydraulic brake system that is not effective unless
the car is running? I have no resistance in either case.
2. Where would you suggest that I start to solve the problem? Any
suggestions are GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Eric
