Heavy clutch?

Post by Jojax »

Tried a short maiden voyage today. Cheez......never realised how heavy the bloody clutch was. Am I looking at clutch replacement? I'll have leg muscles like Linford Christie at this rate. :lol:

does the brake pedal move when you depress the clutch

Just checked. Brake pedal doesn't seem to move when clutch is depressed.

What engine do you have, what sort of clutch?
If you have a 1275 with a diaphragm clutch and standard linkage then it will be very heavy
