This may of been asked and awnsered.. But knock it up to being tired and lazy
Okay, I knew the clutch on my car is going out, Sometimes slips when engaging into 2nd gear (Basiclly 1st engages at around 1/3 stroke down (normal), 2nd will engage with near the very top, 3rd to 5th weirdly, is the same as first..
BUT went on a road trip the other day, 9 hours and 400miles (give or take) Park the car when i get home, get out to it 14 hours later.. clutch pedal was hard to press.. pump it a couple of times, still hard.. Start the car to get it warmed up abit, and as i pump the clutch pedal, it got easier...
Get to where i was going, 5-6 hours later, once again, clutch pedal was hard to press for the first 2 strokes and became easier..
Really feels like it's the pressure plate thou.. But could it be the slave or master?? (OE ford items) ??
Clutch, master and slave cylinders have like 50-60,000 miles on them now.. and i amit, not all easy miles..
Thanks in advance..
like i said, i knew the clutch was about to go.. but i was hoping it'll last least untill the end of summer, when i finally decide if i was gonna pull the motor to redo it...
