lol, I don't know what it is. I noted problems with my clutch feel last month, meaning the soggy pedal etc. Then, one day I attempted to pull the car out of the garage for a short drive... but when I pushed the clutch pedal, it slammed to the floor. It put up normal resistance, for about half the pedal travel, then the next thing I know, the pedal yanked away from my foot and forced itself against the floorboard. Yaaayyyyyy!

It's been sitting since then. Almost a month now. I'm just waiting for some free money and then I'm replacing both cylinders and the hydraulic line. Funny thing is, I'm not even aching to drive it right now. I'm going to use this as an opporitunity to take care of a few things, and possible modify the car. 'm gonna root around the engine bay and inspect whatever I can get to. Just hope it doesn't take too long to get everything sorted out.

P.S. checking and filling the reservoir to the full line (It was low) did nothing. Changed nothing. That irked me.

Yeah, I'm just replacing both cylinders and the line. Getting it over with. Once one goes, the other is sure to be close behind. And I am going to do the line just for good measure. I'm sure with my luck, the line ruptured and the cylinders are fine, but I'm not gonna bank on it. Just hit me with the whammy!
