Re: Clutch Problems

I had a 69 c20 in high school (1975) so this will test my memory!! Lay on your back and look up under the dash at the clutch pedal arm assembly and look for a nasty big spring hooked to the clutch arm. Is it broken?? As stated above that is a strong possibility also.

The spring under the dash was an assist spring, helping it go to the floor easier and giving you some stronger return pressure. It acts as an overcenter spring, so when you are about midway through the travel it isn't helping or hurting the clutch pedal pressure (feel). God i hope my memory is still good. Oh, welcome aboard Derek!!
