<DIV>When that happened in my MGA it was the hose to the slave cylinder
that had failed. It is not apparent from just looking at it because
the failure is inside the hose, same as the brake line hoses. That
was an easier fix than replacing the clutch. Even replacing
the slave or rebuilding it is far less labor intensive than pulling the motor
and gearbox to get to the disc and pressure plate. </DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Picked it up today – when you start it in gear, it starts
moving. Accelerate and it goes, and if you put in the clutch, it takes
most of the pressure off but it still creeps.<o:p></o:p></P>

be doing more than creeping.<BR><BR><o:p></o:p></P></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
