Hi,

My clutch pedal feels the same as it ever did, with no unusual play, only now, 
I can't engage any of the gears at all.  Just letting you know.

Thanks,

John

  That sounds like what my '77 has been doing. It has a new Borg & Beck clutch 
in it, rebuilt master and slave. DOT5 fluid.

  Do you get an abnormal amount of freeplay at the top of the pedal when you're 
losing the clutch? That's what mine does. If I pump it I can get it to just go 
into gear. First time it happened, I let the car sit overnight and everything 
seemed normal in the morning. But the next day out it happened again.

  I haven't had a chance to look at the clutch in this beast yet, but I'll keep 
everyone informed on what I find. Hopefully this weekend I'll get to look at 
it. 

  Let us know what you find out.

  -=Chris
