                Very strange.

1st    I would check all the mount points and connections for the pedal and
everything else in the system all the way down to the slave cylinder and
clutch fork including hydraulic hard line - see if something is worn, out of
place or loose

2nd   I would bleed the system just to make sure there is no air in the line
and that the fluid is clean

3rd   If the fluid is contaminated - flush the system and check the results
- contamination could mean a rebuild is needed

Seems to me I had a return spring in the master that wore down, lost some
spring force and caused a similar problem.

Subject: [Tigers] Clutch problem

On 2 occasions I have had my clutch pedal seemingly hang up. The symptoms
were:  the pedal would go about 1/2 way to the floor with no resistance and
go the last 1/2 with normal resistance. But with the last 1/2 there was no
disengagement and I could not move into or out of any gear.  Shut the engine
off, clutch would go back to normal and could shift again.

Hard to believe that it's a hydraulic problem.  Something hanging up? What?

Maybe your fulcrum mount in the bellhousing is loose or the release lever h=

Mark,

Looking at it from easiest to hardest, maybe (not likely) the slave cyl or
clutch master cyl. is hanging. Maybe the throwout bearing is hanging on the
transmission input shaft sleeve (which means the engine will have to come
out. (Do not try to remove the transmission with the engine in the car.)
You don't mention how long the engine is running before the problem shows
up. I'm assuming when the clutch pedal hangs the car is still in gear..
that is you could drive it forward (or back, depending...).

How long has it been since the clutch cylinders were rebuilt? If it's been
a while you might try them first as part of routine maintenance...

As always, work safely. and if you're working under the car make sure the
jack stands are on the frame, not the rear end...

I don't think that this could be the case but I experienced some of the
symptoms when my throwout bearing failed. The clutch pedal felt "notchy" and
the car would shudder leaving the line, even under light load. Then it would
feel OK for a while. When I pulled the gearbox off of the engine, the
throwout bearing completely came apart and all of the balls rolled out. I
still don't know what could have been the cause of the failure as it was a
new bearing with just a few thousand miles on it, and I certainly don't
remember abusing it.

Cheers,

JVP

A similar problem could occur with the linkage under the dash - check that

Other than that - I'd say it might be a hydraulic problem like an air bubble
that sometimes gets in the line and sometimes not. check your fluid level
and maybe bleed the system, look for gunk or contaminated fluid.

just a few thousand miles on it, and I certainly don&#8217;t remember =
abusing it.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=3DMsoNormal><span =
