Subject: Clutch stuck
Anybody have a neat trick to free a stuck clutch?
..... I have always just put the transmission in reverse or first gear
depending on which direction was clear for traveling and started the warmed up
engine with the clutch pedal depressed. The car will jerk and take off until
the clutch disengages. So make you have enough room and are ready to avoid any
obstacles! If the clutch is still frozen, then try again in fourth gear.
.... UPDATE ...... I forgot to mention that one should have the parking brake
on while depressing the brake pedal and clutch pedal at the same time before
cranking the engine.
Thanks for any advice,
Sloane :)
