need help with clutch !!!!!

HI

yesterday i revd my car on 1st gear and when shifting in to 2nd gear the clutch pedal got stuck down i had to pull up but after that the pedal felt lighter and i couldnt get the car in any gear after that....am not sure what is the problem need some advice???????????????????????



Thanks

Sounds fooked Someone will advise ya mate

Is the retaner spring, that connects to the slave cylinder still on ?. If it wasn't, that would cause the pedal to stick to the floor.

could be the piston pulled out the slave cylinder.
Happened to mine a while back

Sorry but it does and has happened to me too.

theres nowt like bad info and to keep the old headscratchin and blood boilin

i will prove this the spring does not haft to be on,

Phil, it does, or why the fook would they put it there in first place!

ive just done a clutch ask drew i got it off him. the car i did it on never had one, its there to hold the fork steady so it doesnt flap about and keeps it from bouncing on slave cylinder[quote]

Had the same problem as Mark on my classic after leaving the spring off, refitted it and never had the problem again, as have loads of other people, the spring is there to apply tension for return, it may steady the fork but its objective it to ensure return.

1st ive heard of it not returning how carnt it as the piston would push it back out with ease[i]

basically if he carnt get gears the box is either fuked or the clutch is. as the spring doesnt affect thid

this could get interesting

stil wouldnt help in this case if he couldnt get gears

Guys i really dont understand whats going on with the replys!!!!!!!!!!

I dont think its a gear problem its the clutch pedal it feels to light and you cant feel the pressure that you feel when u r changing gears am not good with technical issue...

does any one know some 1 that would take a look and fix the car around chester le street area note i cant move the car it would need to go on a truck.

The spring does have to be on :-/

Mine sprung off! And i had to replace it as my pedal would stick to the floor on hard accelleration.

Could try the bolts that hold the pedal box on in the foot well, one of mine came out & the other one became loose at york a few weeks ago, the pedal had very little resistance, & was unable to select any gears with engine running or not. This also happened to Andy Gready down at Santa Pod.

a could also prove it does have to be on.

BUT, evently the pedal will one day hit the floor and get stuck there.

av done it one ov my cars and seen it in a few cars av worked on.
