Clutch wont engage when starting.. Sign up here!

Sign In Hi everyone! My problem is with my '94 Ford Ranger (manual). When I push on the clutch, the break pedal follows the clutch, like there is a loose screw holding them in place, so the clutch can't fully touch the floor. When starting it, I have to reach down and hold the break up with my hand while pushing on the clutch, then turn the key. It was a really cold morning yesterday and stalled in morning traffic-- it was a nightmare! Has anyone heard of anything like this or have any ideas on how to fix it?

Does this do the same with normal shifting? Only when starting for some reason?? Either way you have to get right under there and look right at where they mount and pivot to see just what's going on there. Good luck with that one, T alternator81 New User Dec 12, 2007, 10:55 AM Post #3 of 4 (2092 views) Re: Clutch wont engage when starting.. Sign In No, it does not happen during normal shifting. What I mean is the clutch will engage when I drive, but it will not go far enough to the floor to start it. It's almost like what ever the two pedals are hooked onto is not stable, but moves. I have looked underneath but did not see anything. I will check again in a little while.

This can't wait! That should be a very strong support under there where they mount. Sometimes you do have to screw around with them for switches for brakes and the clutch switch too - if they were ever replaced that could be a problem, T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
