On a '70, shouldn't the pedal to MC connection be just under the black rounded over pedal box cover. Where the brake switch is mounted? -- ______ Paul T. Root / _ \ 1977 MGB / /|| \\ \ ||__// \______

It's unlikely to be the link between pedal and cylinder as the pedal pushes on the push (funnily enough) rod via a clevis pin and I doubt the hole in the pedal has broken. If the hydraulics were OK a

Before you start disassembly, get someone to push the pedal while you observe the clutch cylinder. If it is pushing the lever 1/2 inch or more, the hydraulics would seem to be working and the problem

Don't know about a 1970 but the 1979 is easy to get at, just remove the cover on the pedal box to gain access. Randy Widman '79 Red B the the the though back up what is

I notice he doesn't mention inspecting the slave cylinder. I imagine it is neither full inside nor dry outside... Either that or the flex hose. I suppose it's possible he actually sheared the pedal p

When I bought my MGB, the clutch was completely non-functional. Turned out the slave cylinder was shot: the seal had liquefied, the piston was pitted, and the bore was hopelessly corroded. The PO was
