Thanks Mickyjd. Glad to be of help. I hope it goes well.

Phil, as for your problem.... it's a new clutch unfortunately. Keeping the power off will nurse it through for a little while until you can get it changed.

Regards,

Colin.

What is the reason for such a stiff clutch pedal? I looked today at a 75 with a stiff action,,would just a new master cyd fix the stiffness,, I,v never had a CAR with an action as stiff as this .I once drove a Leyland hippo with an action much the same... Sorry for bringing this thread back fromthe dead..

No,the stiffness is not an hydraulic prob,but related to the diaphram springs !

the aftermarket's are a lot softer than the genuine one

I had same problem with gear change and reverse after having both cylinders changed. Car went back to garage where they bled system No problem since.

Reverse bleeding is pretty easy.
