Default Clutch sticking to the floor

So when i drive my 98 t/a aggressive clutch will stick to the floor and I have to pull it up, then it seems like the pedal is higher... Changed the fluid... And blead it out! Help

The search option is your friend. Learn it, live it, love it.

Try "clutch sticking" or something like that. I'm sure you'll find the multipage thread that has been stickied.

Yeah, there's a thread about this every other night it seems. A search will be your friend (as mentioned). Odds are it's the stock hydraulics.

or its the dumb restrictor in the line between the master an slave. remove the line off the master an find a drill bit that fits in the line an about 1" in u will feel a restricter. just drill it out an all problems will go away. but remove the whole line wen u drill it so u can get all the chavings out an then re-install

I wouldn't say that drilling your line ("drill mod") will make all your problems go away, it's a cheap fix but not always a permanent one. It's always worth a try, however.

Get a tick well worth the money. I hated paying 300 for mine but theres really no other good options out there.

well if the pedal is staying to the floor then its either master or the line an by drilling the line alows the fluid to return to the master so the pedal doesnt stay to the gloor. if you drill it an continues to stay, then u know u have to replace the master. but drilling the line is free. a tick isnt.

Yeah I just went threw this issue a few months ago,I replaced the master,and slave and put in a new clutch,and that fixed the issue,your clutch could be fine though but mine was shot,yeah the tick is worth it I'm gonna get one after I get my trans rebuilt.the stock ones just are crap for really getting on it,the drill mod might fix your issues,its worth to try it,the tick cost but from what I have read and people that got one say its one of the best parts they have bought,well good luck man,God bless
