Why can't i push clutch pedal down

:rotfl2:

 

Your crackin me up dude.

 

You need an award for shortest post ever.

 

So... whats the deal? pedal is concrete like? rubbery feel? did you inspect stuff? pedal rod popped out of the master cyl? something out of place with pedal arm? clutch failed and won't allow slave cyl travel? has to be something simple.

Leg isn't long enough? :hmm:

Peal is like concrete. Bought new clutch set slave cylinder just in case anything else i should get.Its a 1998 ax5

Sure your stepping on the clutch and not the brake?

Had something like this happen on an F250 that kept popping the hydraulic line off of the slave cylinder. The clip that held the line to the slave was a bad design, and would pop off every other week or so resulting in zero pedal travel.

 

When it happens the fluid in the master has no where to go. Air compresses, liquids don't and will result in a rock hard pedal.

 

Check and ensure its connected to the slave properly and that there are no shipping plugs or debris of any kind on/in the slave cylinder.

 

There is something preventing fluid flow.

Also if it's been sitting for awhile it's possible the piston is froze up to the cylinder wall. Will need dis assembled and cleaned.

Are you sure it's a manual and not an automatic? :rotf: :yes:

It was the throwout bearing spring.It broke and got wedge in the fork causing clutch pedal not to go down. Drove to work everything is good. Tc was leaking so i put a new seal in still leaking. Does anybody have a part # for seal the rear of tc were driveshat goes into its a 231.thanks

[mountainman]

SKF Part # 15047

 

TIMKEN Part # 2506

 

NATIONAL Part # 4370N

 

That is what i could find online for the rear output shaft seal. :)

ok thanks

[pug]

would #17 be worth replacing along with rear seal

[pug]

Would part # 17 be worth replacing and has anyone ever replaced. Its some kind of bushing. thanks

[HKB3]

Beer bottle stuck under the clutch pedal?

Unless you have a lot of side to side slop in the driveshaft yoke it probably does not need replacing. A properly installed seal should be all you need. And good job ignoring the wannabe comedians posting useless replies. :dunce:

Took to local shop they put in new rear output seal in transfercase starting to leak again. Is there something else causing this to leak. thanks

As Hornbrod wrote, part #17 does not need to be replaced "Unless you have a lot of side to side slop in the driveshaft yoke ..." If you have enough slop that a new seal was destroyed in a short time, you might need to replace part #17.

There could be. Pull the driveshaft and examine the slip yoke shaft. It should be smooth with no grooves especially where it rides in the seal. If there is even a minute worn groove, you can throw seals in it all day and they will leak eventually. If there's a groove, replace the slip yoke. Also make sure the outer seal edge is coated with a thin coat of hi-temp RTV when installing so it won't leak around the outer pressed in edge. Don't drive it for 24-hours or so to let the RTV set up.

Just put in new seal and high temp rtv. Hope this fixes it.thanks
