RE: [DML] stiff clutch???

["Tom Tait" <TTait@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have had a similar experience.  I replaced all of my clutch hydraulics, yet the pedal was very stiff.  When my clutch started to wear out I had Danny at DMC replace the clutch, and when I drove it out of the shop it was as soft as butter.  Within ½ mile though it suddenly got stiff again.  He has offered to take a look at it, but I've had no time to get back down there.

Subject: [DML] stiff clutch???

 

Here is a question for the group. I decided yesterday to take my car 
on a highway trip, and when I got to another town 40miles away, I 
noticed my clutch pedal was very stiff. A lot stiffer then when I 
left. 
This has me baffled, can't figure out why it would be harder to move 
the pedal then before. 
Has anyone ever heard of this before?? 
In fact, today when I drove it in town, its still hard to push the 
pedal. 
I have replaced the following a few years ago so I have ruled out any 
of these items. 
new clutch line, both clutch and slave clyinders new. 
just baffled

thanks for any advice
