Clutch problem

["Paul Salsbury" <paul.salsbury@xxxx>]

Over the past 2 days I have started to suffer from and irritating problem my
D

After running the car for about 15-20 mins I start to get problems finding
gears. It starts getting hard to find 2nd then 1st then eventually it
crunches into all. If I stop and let the car cool totally its back to normal
until it starts again.

1 the system is bled
2 I Have the original clutch line
3 in first gear with the clutch fully depressed the car still creeps
forward.
4 this is the first time its been driven in really warn/hot weather

Conclusion????

My thoughts are the pipe needs replacing with a stainless braided one, as
when this one gets warm it softens and then expands under the pressure, not
given the pressure needed to totally release the clutch.

Advice welcome

Cheers
Paul
