Clutch On the Floor

Postby EvilU » Sun Sep 09, 2007 9:34 pm

My cltuch peddle went to floor today with out disengaging the clutch. Actualy it happened a couple of time, and after each I am able to pump it up. Does this sound like the clutch slave cyclinder has done a seal?

Thanks

Yeah thats about what I figures. Realy shitty end to an awesome day. Had been playing on the Great Ocean Road, so many gear changes my left leg began to hurt, then when I finaly get back on a straight road this happens. Could have been worse, could have happened on the GOR itself :shock:

The problem is generally caused by corrosion in the slave cylinder due not flushing the hydraulic fluid every 18-24 months.
