Any problems known on cluth problems ?
Gave mine the beans on Saturday in 1st and 2nd and could not find 3rd, knocked it into neutral lifted foot of clutch and depressed it again and found 2nd, took it gentle for a few miles and seemed OK untill I stoped and needed reverse and no way would it go in, turned of engine and selected reverse and started in gear, no drag, was the same for the rest of the day, took it out yesterday for a gentle drive and it seems to have got better athough still differcult to engage reverse.
Hydrolicks I think is the problem, what do you think ??????????

Yep sounds normal. Did the pedal stay low to the floor? Or was that ok?
I recon a fluid flush can work if its dirty. Others like to replace the clutch with a non OEM one etc.

You chaps with hardcore clutches/brakes and mega HP may want to look at installing a separate reservoir rigged up to the clutch master cylinder. That would avoid heat/dust problems from the braking system affecting the fluid which is being used for the clutch. No idea how feasible this is, but just a suggestion.

It already is seperate.
An LS7 is what it had in it, tried the single plate RAM clutch which was nasty and too heavy for the wife so it got replaced with the LS7 which was fine but had a funny feel and was never the same each time you used it, it could be a faulty one though !
Picador's tried changing the fluid but that made it worse so have left it with them, intresting what you say about pedal box though.
