[Roadsters] --> Re: Test

[Linda J]

Hmm well I prefer that one, I think. The clutch is at least 20 yrs old though
the car has not had many miles in that time. I don't know how long before that
it was changed. What can cause that? Wear, age, bad master? The latter was the
case for longer than I should have let it happen. New one now though.
Looks like an engine pull either way.
I will update here when I figure this out.
