Pete M Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 yup. looks like a new clutch line is in your future. as it turns out you don't actually need the clutch pedal to drive. turn off truck, put it in first, crank the engine and the starter will pull the truck forward and it'll fire up and go. be prepared for it to fire and go. then you just need to match rpms to shift. the biggest hassle is having to turn the truck back off at a stop light to repeat the procedure when the green flashes. drove my '90 home from Ohio this way. the guy I just bought it from said it had a leak but would go all week before needing to top off. it of course lasted about 10 miles.
